Type in 20: Press Checks in the Age of Web Type

A session at TypeCon2012: MKE SHIFT

With the proliferation of webfonts over the past few years, the demands on web designers have increased. Instead of having a handful of typefaces from which to choose, a designer is faced with thousands of options, from more than a dozen sources. While this embarrassment of riches feels like the best thing to happen to web design since embedded images, not all webfonts are created equal. A wrong choice can doom a design. This presentation will discuss the challenges that webfonts present designers and web users and offer a practical approach to prevent the worst of them.
