Typography

Legibility

  • serif - font for print projects;
  • sans serif (sans = without) - for web-sites design;

Actually, it's partially true, but now we have high-resolution screens, which increase text legibility. Do you use digital books? There are serif font as usual, but it's still easy to read. The other picture you'll see on an old screen - serif font would be blurred.

Measure

Line length is the width of a block of typeset text, usually measured in units of length like inches or points or in characters per line (in which case it is a measure). Optimal value: 45 - 75.
