Abstract
In our everyday life we constantly encounter a diversity of reading matters, including display types on traffic signage, printed text in novels, newspaper headlines, or our own writing on a computer screen. All these conditions place different demands on the typefaces applied.
The book discusses these aspects by drawing on typography history, designers’ ideas, and available scientific data concerning the reading process.
