Your Body Text Is Too Small - 0 views

  • Some examples of sans-serif fonts that work well for large body text include Atlas Grotesk, Futura, Lato, Maison Neue, Real Text, Roboto, and Suisse Intโ€™l.
  • Some examples of serif fonts that work well for large body text include Equity, Franziska, Leitura News, Merriweather, Miller, PT Serif, and Tisa.
  • better to optically select a font size according to near-finalized colors, or in different color scenarios
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • a better starting point would be 20px on small desktop displays and greater. We should only have to resort to 16px for body copy on very small mobile devices
  • down to the eye again to optically adjust the letter-spacing and font size together
  • the optimal line length, or number of characters per line (CPL) in typography is around 55 to 75
  • line height should also be relative to the font size as it scales up for larger displays
  • This is not about having the biggest body text, because biggest isnโ€™t best. Itโ€™s about optimizing for the best reading experience you can possibly give your users
  • sites that have adopted bigger body text even at small desktop or laptop resolutions such as 1440 x 900. They go from 20px all the way up to 58px!

A Beginner's Guide to Pairing Fonts | Webdesigntuts+ - 2 views

  • Using multiple fonts together can be difficult, achieving harmony is challenging, but if you manage it the result can be decorative and striking. Use fewer fonts and your task is more straight forward. Try to make the best of both worlds by selecting fonts with multiple variants and weights. In this way you can take advantage of an array of styles, safe in the knowledge that theyโ€™ll compliment each other just fine.
  • Whatโ€™s the Nature of my Content? When selecting fonts itโ€™s important to consider the nature of the layout youโ€™re dealing with. Are we talking mainly body copy? Are there multiple headings, sub-headings? Perhaps itโ€™s a magazine layout with decks, blockquotes? When using multiple fonts make sure that the roles are clearly established; if one font is used as a sub-heading, donโ€™t switch to another font for a sub-heading elsewhere. Keep a fontโ€™s purpose clear.
  • How Do I Achieve Successful Pairing? You might have already heard this; successful pairing relies on concord, or contrast, but not conflict. That is to say your selected fonts can work well together by sharing certain qualities, or by being completely different from one another. However, font pairs can conflict in a number of ways โ€“ being too similar being just one.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • The x-height of a font describes the height from the base line to the upper reaches of the lower case characters, like the x. A proportionately large x-height helps with readability.
  • Pairing 2: Contrast Contrast between fonts often lends a winning combination, but in what ways can fonts contrast? Here are just some qualities to look for: Style: Take a look at any font resource site and youโ€™ll see them categorized as Blackletter, Monospace, Script, Slab Serif etc. Fonts of different styles will often contrast. Size: Big font, little font. Say no more. Weight: Varying the weight of fonts is a common way to establish visual hierarchy. Hierarchy achieved by contrast. Form: Consider the proportions of a typeface. The relative length of the descenders, the curvature of the shoulders, the direction of the movement. Color: Not something weโ€™re going to go into here, but color can easily determine whether two fonts work well together.
  • Itโ€™s a classic way of pairing; take a decorative serif for the heading and a sure-footed sans-serif for the body. Or take a no-nonsense sans-serif for the headings, with a pleasantly legible serif for the body. A winner in many cases. Letโ€™s look at a few, kicking off with two system fonts. Thatโ€™s right, even they can work well together.
  • Condensed fonts always work well to get your attention, as they take up a lot of vertical real estate.
  • Slab serifs make very effective attention grabbers, but can be a bit pushy if youโ€™re not careful.
  • Pairing 3: Conflict Letโ€™s not focus too much on what doesnโ€™t work well, we donโ€™t want to sour the joyous combinations in the rest of this guide do we? That said, letโ€™s just illustrate how two fonts, which are arguably too similar, can look awkward together.
  • Once youโ€™ve concluded that you donโ€™t like a font pairing, try to work out why and it will help you make decisions more quickly in the future.

The 100% Easy-2-Read Standard - 0 views

  • 1. Standard font size for long texts
  • 2. Active white space
  • The basic rule is: 10าป15 words per line. For liquid layouts, at 100% font size, 50% column width (in relation to window size) is a good benchmark for most screen resolutions.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • 3. Reader friendly line height
  • The default HTML line height is too small. If you increase the line height, the text becomes more readable. 140% leading is a good benchmark.
  • 4. Clear color contrast
