Selecting a typeface: it’s not about the serif. https://medium.com/design-bootcamp/calling-bs-on-the-serif-vs-sans-serif-debate-8d44b6a9ce22

I really like this.
We may be the only two people left in the universe who think that the decline of the serif is the saddest part of the 20th (and 21st) centuries...

I hereby curse whoever decided that capital I and lowercase l should look the same in sans serif fonts. May your foundry founder.

Introducing Kombinat, the latest addition to my font collection! This modernist, compressed sans-serif font takes inspiration from factory signage of the 1960s and 1970s, featuring a modular and geometric construction that ensures legibility even when printed or painted over rough textures. #GraphicDesign #Typography #FontDesign #TypeDesign #DesignInspiration #Typeface #SansSerif Get full version here: https://darie.gumroad.com/l/kombinat or check trial here: https://darie.gumroad.com/l/sfsgg

I'll just leave this here. This is my peak self-promotion, it could only go downhill from here.

🥳 FINALLY RELEASED! 👀
After more than ten years (this probably deserves a separate blog post…) our Knedle font family is finally released for public! More info (and images) on our website https://sudetype.com/en/typefaces/knedle
And if you like our work, please share the news—for a small independent type foundry like us, it really, really helps.

The #USA State Department has used #TimesNewRoman for its official communications since 2004. Now it’s switching to the #SansSerif #Calibri in an effort to improve #accessibility. https://www.fastcompany.com/90836830/the-state-department-ditching-times-new-roman-for-calibri?partner=rss&utm_source=feedly&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=rss+fastcompany&utm_content=rss #Typography #GraphicDesign #Fonts #Typefaces

I have read this: "The Legibility of Serif and Sans Serif Typefaces" by John T. E. Richardson. TL;DR there is no evidence that sans serif is harder to read than serif type, or vice versa. This applies to print vs. screen, document vs. web, people with disabilities. However, text that creates "stripes" because of font letter spacing and letterforms may be slightly problematic. https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-90984-0 #Accessibility #Typography #Fonts #SansSerif

Speaking of #fonts it would be fantastic to show and search installed font by categories: #serif, #sansserif , #script, #monospaced, #calligraphic and so on, the way sites like 1001fonts.com do

Oh we see in your screenshot what you mean now. That is interesting. The font 'Arial' or 'Helvetica' might be different or rendered differently on your system/browser?
By the way Klaus that font family is generally covered by simply 'sans-serif', no need to mention the other fonts.
We remember reading that you can turn off #subpixelRendering effects (like #antiAliasing) using CSS, but that's not happening here.
