An older book on the same topic
This is a collection of tips, explanations, DIY how-tos, and editorials concerning font design, typography, Typography on the Web, and clear communication with type. It also presents my present passion of on-demand publishing & writing in InDesign. The tools of choice are InDesign, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Fontographer, and FontLab.
