Type for the Internet and Other Digital Media
(E-Design Series)

FROM THE PUBLISHER
Enhance your website design by knowing exactly which fonts to use to achieve optimum legibility and clarity across the computer screen. For technical reasons, the appearance of text on the screen is not the same quality as it would be in the print media. Reading from the screen is far more strenuous and tiring for the eyes than reading from paper, and the fonts you use in your screen design should take this into account. Featuring numerous examples of screen-based type usage, this vibrant guide describes how attributes are modified in relationship to type, size, type designs, color, and contrast. Bonus : Various typeface classifications are examined and compared for effectiveness on the screen, such as serifs, san serifs, and computer typefaces.
