Source Sans Pro: Adobe’s first open source type family « Typblography Adobe’s legacy in type technology Adobe has come a long way since its early days in which the specification for the PostScript Type 1 font format was a closely-guarded trade secret leading up to the “font wars.” Since this specification was begrudgingly published in 1990, Adobe has been more proactive in publicly releasing tools for developing and producing high-quality type. Subsequently, Adobe collaborated with Microsoft on the OpenType standard, which was later made an open standard for type technology as the Open Font Format: a free, publicly available standard (ISO/IEC 14496-22:2009). In connection with this, Adobe has shared its tool set for building OpenType fonts as the Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType (AFDKO). Although these tools are not open source, they can be used freely and have been downloaded by thousands of users. Adobe’s open source contributions have not only been limited to the realm of type.

Tutorials | Type palettes BY CHUCK GREEN Is the primary purpose of document design aesthetic? To my way of thinking—no. The first and, by far, the most important role of design is to map out the message. No matter how entertaining and visually exciting it is, the success of an ad, a brochure, or a newsletter is gauged by results alone—how many people are moved to action. Typography plays a dual role in design. Second, the character of a typeface establishes a mood, much like a musical score does for a movie—it is not necessarily the primary focus, but it often plays a pivotal role in telling the story. These “type palettes” are a combinations of typefaces that, in my opinion, work together to elicit a particular mood or emotion. You can purchase direct from many foundries or from a source such as Myfonts.com that sells fonts from many different publishers.
