Abstract:
The design of typefaces is founded upon principles from the days of metal type, when creating individual fonts was a laborious process and constrained by physical requirements. Most digital type design follows those same conventions, even though fonts are now drawn with vectors and pixels. Fonts are still largely based on historical references and are created in the context of publishing.
