When it comes to finding free online resources for building out various features of your site, application, or other form of media, it’s not exactly a difficult challenge. Free icons, color scheme generators, and artwork are all easy to come by.
Far less frequently do I see resources for typography, so when I do, I bookmark them. Such is the case with Font Shop’s free guide to typography…
Meet Your Type is a free publication that covers what to look for in good typography, selecting the appropriate typeface, licensing, and more. You can download a PDF or view it in their slick online reader.
They’ve also got some supplemental documentation on rules for better typography, a primer on terms, and more.
Love digging through this kind of stuff.
