Best-selling author Robin Williams presents the basics of typography in this collection of easy-to-follow tips, techniques, and principles based on her previous hit, Beyond the Mac is not a typewriter. This book explains the logic behind the principles so you can understand what looks best and why.

"Decent book, it seemed a little dated, as desktop publishing software has come a long way since 1998. Wish my library had the second edition issued in 2005.
But, I learned some stuff that I have been doing wrong, and can see why it's wrong now, so in that way the book defiantly is good."
"There is a lot of good information succinctly delivered by this book. It was the text for my digital page design class and served as an apt companion to our InDesign work. My only complaint (and the reason I give the book three stars instead of four) is that while the content of the book is solid, it's form is well, kind of homely. 'Nuff said."
"I really enjoyed the way Ms. Williams writes about typography. This was a fun, in-your-face look at the world of type and what not to do with it. She gives great examples. I definitely learned a lot. I will most likely keep this book close by every time I'm designing with type."
