Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The predominance of the Internet as a global system of interconnected computer networks and the rapidly developing technologies of the digital world keep typography in a constant state of evolution. New output media require new fonts that optimise readability. And of course, since a font is much more than a pure conveyor of information, the aesthetic aspects of this context are equally gaining in importance.

This volume offers support in the selection and optimised application of fonts for web design. The combination of established print typography rules and the special characteristics of web design allows readers to enter the world of web typography. Based on contents ranging from basic information to analytical font selection criteria, Overlap can be a valuable guide to gaining finesse in the use of fonts for the web.
