Font Wars began on Newsroom-l. I've moved the files here in the expectation of a possible surge in server load as the word gets out. In the next few days, I will be adding more images and analyses exploring the fascinating story of "Font Wars: How Dubya Got Kerned." As you'll see we have contributions from Adobe's Thomas Phinney and other folks with awesome expertise in the art, technique and history of digital typography.
I'm hoping that this very specialized blog will evolve into a general gathering place for people who love type. This is all so exciting that my little heart is going pitter-pat. Kerning on the Evening News? I never thought I'd see that in my lifetime. I mean, it never even occurred to me. How could it?
