News & Stories from Identity Letters
We don’t just make fonts. We talk fonts. We breathe fonts. If you’re here, you’re probably like us. Are you? Great! This blog is for you. Enjoy some musings about the historical background of our typefaces, the process of type design, our approach to the type business, and, of course, using fonts: how to pick a typeface, how to combine fonts, how to use OpenType features, etc. We welcome your comments: Feel free to add to the dialogue.
