I am quite willing to learn much more about typesetting and font design and related topics but I dont know where to look. The graphics arts department here concentrates on other areas. I know about the book on recognizing typefaces and the magazines that Richard Furuta posted through Ken Yap. (Thanks people!) Any other references would be highly appreciated. -- Torin/Darren Stalder/Wolf Blessed Internet: dstalder@gmuvax2.gmu.edu Be!

I would do my best to compile a list, either from suggestions e-mailed
to me at one of:
anderson@vms.macc.wisc.edu
anderson@wiscmacc[.bitnet]
[backbone]!uwvax!vms.macc.wisc.edu!anderson
or from postings carrying the subject line "Getting Wise About Type"
in this newsgroup.
What would be best is Author, Title, Publisher, Date and a 2-3 line
terse comment on the content/value of each title. Let's try to
limit it to first-rate books that are fairly readily available.
I'll collect data for three weeks (I'll be out of town 4/28-5/5),
then post what I have accumulated by then.
