  • CSS Font Stacks by Classification
    CSS font stacks by classification Written by Frode Helland When Johann Gutenberg printed his famous Bible more than 600 years ago, the only typeface available was his own. Since the invention of moveable lead type, throughout most of the 20th century graphic designers and printers have been limited to one – or perhaps only a handful of typefaces – due to costs and availability. Since the birth of desktop publishing and the introduction of the worlds firstWYSIWYG layout program, MacPublisher (1985), the number of typefaces available – literary at our fingertips – has grown exponen- tially. Still, well into the 21st century, web designers find them selves limited to only a handful. Web browsers depend on the users own font files to display text, and since most people don’t have any reason to purchase a typeface, we’re stuck with a selected few. This issue force web designers to rethink their approach: letting go of control, letting the end user resize, restyle, and as the dynamic web evolves, rewrite and perhaps also one day rearrange text and data. As a graphic designer usually working with static printed items, CSS font stacks is very unfamiliar: A list of typefaces were one take over were the previous failed, in- stead of that single specified Stempel Garamond 9/12 pt. that reads so well on matte stock. Am I fighting the evolution? I don’t think so. Some design principles are universal, independent of me- dium. I believe good typography is one of them. The technology that will let us use typefaces online the same way we use them in print is on it’s way, although moving at slow speed.

  • The Graphie Latine Movement and the French Typography Manuel Sesma Prieto
    UNIVERSITÉ PARIS 1 PANTHÉON-SORBONNE CENTRE DE RECHERCHE HiCSA (Histoire culturelle et sociale de l’art - EA 4100) UNE ÉMERGENCE DU DESIGN FRANCE, 20e SIÈCLE Sous la direction de Stéphane Laurent Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne THE GRAPHIE LATINE MOVEMENT AND THE FRENCH TYPOGRAPHY MANUEL SESMA PRIETO Pour citer cet article Manuel Sesma Prieto, « The Graphie Latine Movement and the French Typogra- phy », dans Stéphane Laurent (dir.), Une émergence du design. France 20e siècle, Paris, site de l’HiCSA, mis en ligne en octobre 2019, p. 126-143. THE GRAPHIE LATINE MOVEMENT AND THE FRENCH TYPOGRAPHY MANUEL SESMA PRIETO Associate professor, Facultad de Bellas Artes, Universidad Complutense de Madrid Introduction Most works dealing with the history of typography, many of Anglo-Saxon authors, reflect the period covered by the two decades after World War II practically dominated by neogrotesque typefaces. However, there were some reactions against this predominance, mainly from traditionalist positions that are rarely studied. The main objective of this research is thus to reveal the particular case of France, where there was widespread opposition to linear typefaces, which results into different manifestations in the field of national typography. This research wants therefore to situate the French typographical thought (which partially reflected the traditionalism of British typographical reformism led by Stanley Morison 1) within the history of European typography, and in a context dominated by the modern proposals arising mainly from Switzerland. This French thought is mostly shown in a considerable number of articles published in various specialist and professional press media, which perfectly reflected the general French atmosphere.

In 1894, at the age of twelve, he took an after-school job with a small printing shop in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Over the next few years, his duties progressed from sweeping the shop and selling papers to feeding the press and composing type. When he was sixteen, Colish and his mother moved to New York City, where he quickly found a position as a typesetter for Kane Brothers, a Broadway printing company. In 1907, Colish left his position as a composing room foreman at Rogers and Company and opened his own composing office. His business specialized in advertising typography and is credited as the first shop to exclusively cater to the advertising market. By the next year, Colish moved into larger quarters and began printing small orders. After several moves to successively larger offices in New York City, the Press of A.

  • The Story of Perpetua
    The Story of Perpetua 3 Tiffany Wardle March 10, 2000 2 4 Essay submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Arts in Theory and History of Typography and Graphic Communication, University of Reading, 2000. This essay relates the origins of the typeface Perpetua and Felicity italic which were designed by Eric Gill and produced byThe Monotype Corporation.Although the type and the collaborators are well known, the story has had to be pieced together from a variety of sources—Gill’s and Morison’s own writings and biographical accounts.There are accounts similar to this, but none could be found that either takes this point of view, or goes into as great detail. In 1924, an essay directed towards the printers and type founders was calling for a new type for their time. Entitled ‘Towards An Ideal Type,’ Stanley Morison wrote it for the second volume of The Fleuron. In the closing statement there is an appeal for “some modern designer who knows his way along the old paths to fashion a fount of maximum homogeneity, that is to say, a type in which the uppercase, in spite of its much greater angularity and rigidity, accords with the great fellowship of colour and form with the rounder and more vivacious lowercase.”1 Two years later, in 1926, again Morison is requesting a “typography based not upon the needs and conventions of renaissance society but upon those of modern England.”2 Only two years previous had the Monotype Corporation assigned Stanley Morison as their Typographical Advisor. Once assigned he pursued what he later came to call his “programme of typographical design”3 with renewed vigour.
