Review

Today's new Web designers are learning what novice desktop publishers learned years ago--the nuances of type matter! They can pull readers into a page or chase them away. And good typography is even more challenging on the Web than it is on paper. Michael Leary, Daniel Hale, and Andrew Devigal show how to beat that challenge and make a page both typographically exciting and inviting. You'll learn the principles, the terms, the tricks of the trade, including how to tell good typefaces from bad--even the basics of designing a font of your own.
