We recently held a gallery showing as part of Typecon for Matthew Carter's work for Microsoft (http://designcommission.com/matthewcarter/) and it was a fascinating process to put this show together. We're an all Mac studio, but we all really came to a new level of appreciation for MS as part of the process. People like Bill Hill, Virginia Howlett, and heck, event Bill Gates, have been HUGE proponents of good, legible type. There's a real focus there on recognizing that people will read on-screen more and more in the future.</p> <p>In any case - great collection of links. Thanks for the fantastic info, as usual.</p> Note really a tip, but regarding Microsoft’s typography site, it actually shouldn’t really be too surprising that they have invested so heavily in on-screen type.
