	Typotheque: My Type Design Philosophy by Martin Majoor
		A type designer must know how type works in a piece of text, he must know what happens with the type on different sorts of paper, he must know how a typeface behaves with different printing techniques.
		Consequently, even a great type designer like Adrian Frutiger made slanted romans with his sans serif designs, and it was only recently, when his Frutiger typeface (1977) was redrawn in 2000, now with a real italic instead of a slanted roman, that he acknowledged that a real italic makes a better contrast with the roman.
		The first attempt to design a sans based on a seriffed typeface was undertaken by the Dutch type designer Jan van Krimpen.

		And, at the same time she is trashing Helvetica, she calls "rendered" type (such as 3D effects, letters that appear to be chiseled from stone or made of, say, salad greens) typography's "most beautiful" trend.
		If you aren't a designer, or aren't particularly artistic, like me, you will benefit from this book because she gives clear examples of how to catch the reader's eye, and gives examples of pitfalls to avoid.

	Fontographer versus Type-Designer (4)
		See Figure 22: it suffices to click on a character to select it, in order that appear three lines which represent the left border (L), the kerning (K) and the right border (R), that you can move to modify the corresponding data.
		With this last software, it is also often difficult to realize the alignment of the inferior character part for the v and the w, despite "hints" and alignment zones.
		As for Type 1 fonts, Type-Designer knows the "hint replacement", but ignores, contrarily to Fontographer, the "flex" technique (that allow to suppress, in smaller sizes where such a nuance can not be correctly rendered, the incurvation of serifs in fonts like Garamond or Palatino), as well as (to see supra) composite characters.
