Summary: Completely revised and expanded, the second edition of Thinking with Type provides even more examples, exercises, and useful information than the first edition, published in 2004, which was quickly recognized as an essential design tool. A blank page or screen confronts the designer with fundamental questions. What kind of typeface to use? How big? How should those letters, words, and paragraphs be aligned, spaced, ordered, and shaped? Thinking with Type provides clear and focused guidance for students, designers, writers, and editors on how to arrange written content. Throughout the book, visual examples show how to be inventive within the systems of typographic form. With forty-eight pages of new content and dozens of additional illustrations, the second edition provides stunning examples, eye- opening demonstrations, and helpful exercises. INCLUDES NEW SECTIONS ON: Lining and non-lining numerals, Small caps and enlarged capitals, Optical sizes, Captions, Punctuation and ornaments, Font formats and font licensing, Mixing typefaces, Hand lettering
