Publisher's note: Abstract: "This collection of essays on type design and typography, written by some of the foremost designers and scholars in the field, will appeal to those who use…, study, and love type - from advertising designers to desktop publishers, from research bibliographers to just plain discerning readers, all of whom have observed and been fascinated by the way TYPE, apparently a neutral conveyor, can radically affect the meaning and impact of the message. From its first issue in 1975, Fine Print has been the only magazine in the world devoted to all the arts of bookmaking: typography, printing, bookbinding, papermaking, illustration, calligraphy, and graphic design. "The book is a complex object," says publisher Sandra Kirshenbaum, "and each element that goes into it is ages old. Each aspect could fill a magazine of its own, but we attempt to cover the whole book - the book as an intellectual medium and as a physical object." As part of this objective, the magazine has regularly published a series of articles under the title "On Type," exploring the history and development of type design to its scribal roots and looking ahead to the best in digital type for the new electronic media. It makes for a stimulating and instructive mix of the aesthetic and the technical, the traditional and the avant garde. Types covered include the up-to-date and quotidian like ITC Zapf Chancery, Galliard, and Century, as well as little-known but interesting historical faces like Fleischmann Antiqua, Hiero-Rhode Italic, and Hammer Uncial. Here sixteenth- and seventeenth-century type designers like Claude Garamond and Miklós Kis share the stage with the "bit wizards" of our own time like Kris Holmes and Sumner Stone. Who really was responsible for the design of Arrighi? Why do knowledgeable typographers always specify Kis/Janson and never "Janson" types? Which should come first, choice of paper or choice of type? How is designing a typeface like creating a dance for Isadora Duncan? If these questions intrigue you, then Fine Print On Type is for you." -- Size: 31.1 x 23.5 x 1.3 cm. 147 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo.
