Type design is often presented in either such detail-obsessed
complexity that it is not welcoming to beginners, or it is so
simplified with the help of apps and web services that the
resulting fonts are virtually useless. This book is different. It
shows readers how to design professional fonts - without having to
find out all of type design's secrets first. Designing Fonts
teaches the basics of type design from sketched letters to finished
font, offering an uncomplicated but thorough introduction to type
design. With easy-to-follow instructions, many examples and
professional tips, readers will learn how to design unique
typefaces tailor-made for their own projects or customer orders.
This book has two parts. Part 1 explains the theoretical, creative
and technical basics of type design and font production. Six
chapters then cover everything from alphabet to font, showing
readers how to find and develop typeface ideas, design matching
letters, produce fonts and expand them with special functions. Part
2 comprises eight workshops that explore how to design and
implement different kinds of typefaces, from decorative
interlocking display fonts with alternative letters to
well-developed headline fonts with multiple cuts and OpenType
features.
