Controlling Web Typography ¶
Slides from a talk Trent Walton recently gave.
Jake Archibald on @font-face ¶
Recommended: browser support notes (slide 39), the whole “Downloading” section (slides 40-52), and Jake’s font-size-adjust formula (slides 104-105). Shame only one of those three hairy explanations is a joke.
CSS and type rendering ¶
Over at Typekit, I wrote about CSS properties that affect type rendering.
I talked about text size, contrast, rotation, and vendor-specific font smoothing, but additional resources/considerations are being linked up in the comments. Check it out, and share your own experiences.
