Print designers have had the advantage for a long time over their ability to choose exactly how type is printed, limited only by their imagination and the mechanical limits of setting and printing type. Web designers, on the other hand, have been held back by the inherent hardware and software limitations associated with web design and font selection. What this means is that web designers have not been able to control type exactly the way they want. Web designers have been limited to fonts that can safely be displayed on most computers and web browsers. If web designers wanted to display type with a special font, they had to resort to a workaround that was not always effective. Web designers should have the same absolute control over typography as print designers. Control of web typography has gotten much better compared to the early days of web design, but 2 considering how powerful and robust computers and web browsers are now, it seems unfortunate that control over web typography is so primitive That has changed now.

  • Cascading Style Sheets, Level 2 W3C Proposed Recommendation 24-Mar-1998
    PR-CSS2-19980324 Cascading Style Sheets, level 2 W3C Proposed Recommendation 24-Mar-1998 This version: http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/PR-CSS2-19980324 Latest version: http://www.w3.org/TR/PR-CSS2 Previous version: http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/WD-css2-19980128 Editors: Bert Bos <[email protected]> Håkon Wium Lie <[email protected]> Chris Lilley <[email protected]> Ian Jacobs <[email protected]> Abstract This specification defines Cascading Style Sheets, level 2 (CSS2). CSS2 is a style sheet language that allows authors and users to attach style (e.g., fonts, spacing, and aural cues) to structured documents (e.g., HTML documents and XML applications). By separating the presentation style of documents from the content of documents, CSS2 simplifies Web authoring and site maintenance. CSS2 builds on CSS1 (see [CSS1]) and all valid CSS1 style sheets are valid CSS2 style sheets. CSS2 supports media-specific style sheets so that authors may tailor the presentation of their documents to visual browsers, aural devices, printers, braille devices, handheld devices, etc. This specification also supports content positioning, downloadable fonts, table layout, features for international- ization, automatic counters and numbering, and some properties related to user interface. Status of this document This document is currently undergoing review by the members of the World Wide Web Consortium. It is a stable document derived from a series of working drafts produced over the last year as deliverables of the Style Sheets activity. Details of this review have been distributed to Member’s representatives. Comments by non-Members should be sent to [email protected].

  • @Font-Face the Web Open Font Format (WOFF) Is Supported By
    PAGE 1/3 ............................................................................................................................... @font-face BROWSER SUPPORT The Web Open Font Format (WOFF) is supported by Mozilla Firefox 3.6+, Google Chrome 5+, Opera Presto, by Mac OS X Lion's Safari from release 5.1 and is supported by Internet Explorer 9 (Version 4 and higher can use web fonts in Embedded OpenType (EOT) format). WOFF2 is supported on Safari 10 on OS X Sierra, and all actual versions of Chrome, Firefox and Opera. All OpenType features are supported according to this last browser versions, like Kerning (kern), Ligatures (liga/clig), Contextual Alternates (calt), Numerators (numr), Oldstyle Numerals (onum), Proportional Numbers (pnum), Tabular Numbers (tnum), Small Capitals (smcp), Case-Sensitive Forms (case) and finally Slashed Zero (zero). USING WEBFONTS WITH CASCADING STYLE SHEETS (CSS) Upload the font files to your web server. You need the files EOT, WOFF and WOFF2 for each font style you want to use in your site. Use the CSS code example below to address your webfonts. Replace the example font file URL with its appropriate path on your server. @font-face { font-family: 'FontName'; ............................................................................................................................... src: url('/fonts/fontname-webfont.eot'); src: local('‚ò∫'), url('/fonts/fontname-webfont.woff2') format('woff2'), url('/fonts/fontname-webfont.woff') format('woff'); font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; } You can then reference your font family by the name you gave it in CSS font stacks as you would any other font. CONTROLLING KERNING AND LIGATURES VIA CSS You can use the non-standard CSS property text-rendering to control the usage of kerning and ligatures in Firefox (version 3+).

    The Future of Web Typography Richard Rutter I’m cofounder of Clearleft, a user experience consultancy in Brighton. I’m an user experience designer by day and a web typography evangelist by night. In fact I’m also that by day now because I’m cofounder of Fontdeck, and webfonts service. ÿ Typography is important because most of the content on the web consists of words. And if those words are to be read, and for that reading experience to be good, then it’s the details that count. I’m going to go through some of the upcoming CSS3 features that provide more control over the details, and later on I’ll do a quick demo of Fontdeck. Ultra light Museo Slab Light Museo Slab Regular Museo Slab Bold Museo Slab Black Museo Slab Ultra black Museo Slab Let’s start with some CSS 1. Font-weight. Here’s regular and bold of Museo Slab Ultra light Museo Slab Light Museo Slab Regular Museo Slab Bold Museo Slab Black Museo Slab Ultra black Museo Slab Not just regular and bold, but also light, ultralight, bold, black, ultrablack. h1 { font-family: “Museo Slab”, Georgia, serif; font-weight: bold; } You’ll be familiar with this: using font-weight with the ‘bold’ keyword. h1 { font-family: “Museo Slab”, Georgia, serif; font-weight: 200; } But to set a weight lighter than regular, or indeed heavier than bold, we need to resort to a numerical scale.
