Determine the image you want to project with your publication and choose fonts with personalities that will fit that image.
1Limit the number of typefaces in a publication
milo 3oneseven uses a limit of two typefaces, but occasionally this will vary. Too many typefaces can create an unprofessional, jumbled image.
milo 3oneseven look at various publications for ideas about which typefaces work well together and the images they project.
2When using two typefaces, make sure they are very different
One typeface will probably be used for display type, such as headings, and the other for text. Strive for definite contrast between the two. When choosing only one typeface family, choose one with a lot of variations, so some flexibility with text design appears.
3Reliable one such as Garamond, Palatino, Helvetica, Goudy, or Times Roman.
milo 3oneseven uses a display type that has very strong characters (type that is bigger and bolder than regular type), a typeface for text that looks more neutral. Very elaborate typefaces can be hard to read. Limit use to only a few words and make sure the words are legible.
4All caps are harder to read than upper and lower case letters
milo 3oneseven limits the use of all caps to two or three words. Some typefaces, such as Old English, are not designed to be used for all caps. Bold and italic type for just a few words.
5Avoid setting large blocks of text in bold or italic type
Both styles are generally more difficult to read than regular type. A block of bold type tends to darken a page.
Typeface weight will have a large impact on the color or darkness of ecommerce. Thin lines will create a light and airy appearance, while thick lines will create a dark and heavy appearance. Weight can be very important to the image of a publication.
6Different typefaces take up different amounts of space
Some fonts are larger and take up more space per letter. This can greatly affect the length of a publication.
The reader’s eye is attracted by white space. It gives the eye a rest and calls attention to what it surrounds.
7Break multi-line headings by phrase (where a spoken pause would occur)
milo 3oneseven places more white space above heading than below. This signals the reader that the heading goes with the text below it = the spacing between lines or leading to create a lighter-looking page.
