Typogra¨Phy On The Web. Cd-Rom Included

Now you can publish perfect Web pages using typefaces that you can provide to your Web site visitors. This comprehensive book for webmasters and other Web workers on the new Web typography begins with a few chapters for those who missed Desktop Publishing 101 and quickly moves on to provide the groundwork for understanding the new typesetting and layout enabled by Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), TrueDoc, and font embedding. Two chapters make using CSS easy by featuring hands-on work with CSS as well as a handy reference, and other chapters help you master TrueDoc typesetting and font embedding. The book also explores dozens of ideas for typography using only HTML and covers specialized Web pages such as for NetTV (e.g., WebTV), Java, and cross-media publishing. As this book takes you on a journey through this exciting new technology, it never loses sight of the goals of publishers: more attractive style and greater readability. Text is the workhorse of the Web. By making your style more attractive and your text more readable, you can more effectively rival paper publishers. • Typographical principles • Digital typography • HTML typography • Typesetting and layout with Cascading Style Sheets • TrueDoc • Font embedding • Dynamic typography • Readability information • NetTV typography • Java typography • Cross-media typography
