TypeStyle: How to choose and use type
on a personal computer takes a whole new approach to type. TypeStyle
looks at type in a user-friendly way that helps you understand, appreciate
(and yes, choose and use) type.
"Type is a powerful tool. If you put words or numbers on paper, choosing the right typeface and using it effectively can subliminally enhance your message, giving you a competitive edge. Whatever you produce and whatever software you produce it with, this book will help you understand not only the logic, but also the psychology and emotional power of type."
This book will show you:
- How to choose and combine typefaces artfully
- How to make your pages easier to read
- How to create the desired atmosphere and mood
- How to avoid ugly and embarrassing mistakes

I cam currently at work on an electronic edition of the book to be sold from this site, but if you're interested, I recommend you get a rare printed copy while they are still in stock. Purchasers of the printed book will receive a discount on the electronic version.
