Produktbeschreibungen

Amazon.com

An ideal book for beginners who want to learn how to use type effectively in their work, Digital Typography Sourcebook is a thorough guide to the many kinds of typefaces available today. The author, Marvin Bryan, provides a great deal of historical information on the development of old style, transitional, modern, slab serif, sans-serif, script, blackletter, uncial, display, and novelty typefaces. Bryan also addresses technical issues of digital typography, such as using special characters and understanding the fonts available on Macintosh and Windows systems. The book discusses software utilities such as Macromedia's Fontographer, which lets you design your own fonts, and teaches you how to use type effectively in layouts and build your own font library. The CD includes a large font collection and demo versions of popular graphics packages such as Adobe Illustrator and Macromedia Freehand.

Book Description

This professional desktop publisher's reference to fonts covers all the bases, including how to find fonts, how to convert them between Macs and PCs, how to modify them, and how to use them to create professional designs. You'll learn how to identify fonts in print so you can create a similar look. And you'll be stepped through the creation of a font library, including what fonts to buy, how much you should pay, and what fonts to avoid.

This book has a very good overview of typography for a beginner, the development and history of various typefaces, and the anatomy of the characters. The CD contains a few fonts that help make the price of the book a bit better. The actual examples of typefaces in use were terribly amateurish, however, and didn't serve to illustrate the author's point of view very well. I would recommend this book as a reference, but not a guide for using type in practice.

A Good Introduction 18. Februar 1998
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
This book is a good introduction to digital fonts, but if you already have other books on typography you can pass on this one. One of the main reasons that I bought this book was because of the claim that it included "A Large Collection" of fonts on the included CD-ROM. I found only three Windows fonts that were of any use to me. The rest of the "fonts" are actually bitmaps pictures of the typefaces. The other software programs are demo versions, most of them old, and newer versions can be obtained on the websites of Adobe, Pyrus and other vendors. Since I don't own an Apple computer I can't comment on the fonts or demo versions of those programs.
