Reading Letters Designing for Legibility

Rezension

"It gathers a lot of resources that I haven't seen in print before - certainly not in a single volume. It's as useful to typographers as it is to type designers and it will help any font user be more informed about how they select and set type." - Stephen Coles - Typeanatomy.com "Rather than infallible recipes, the book offers a series of considerations and assessments, helped by academic resources and practical examples, all carefully illustrated. Big names (Gerard Unger, Matthew Carter) sit alongside little-known studies such as Frank E. Blokland's research on 'patternisation' of type design." - Sébastien Morlighem - Eye "A comprehensive review of what we know about reading and legibility and how they relate to letterforms. I am a huge fan of this book and Sofie's work." - Thomas Phinney
