Rosemary Sassoon alerts those involved in computer interface design that the skills of layout, spacing and typeface are equally vital in the construction of onscreen layouts as they are on the printed page. Computers and Typography 2 reflects the new developments in this rapid-changing field. It complements, without in any way supplanting, the first book through an extensive elaboration of issues that were considered only briefly in its precursor. Presented as a series of integrated case studies and interviews, the book includes: the skills needed for quality web design the impact of computers upon publishing and corporate design the use of computers within the educational field the progress of child-oriented typefaces, and issues in screen layout when designing educational and training software. The clarity and breadth of each presentation makes this especially valuable for all concerned in education, training, design and typography.
