Typedia: A Shared Encyclopedia of Typefaces

Many fonts have their own abbreviations. Some are about symbol sets and font formats, others are about design idiosyncrasies and foundry engineering, and so on. These abbreviations and their definitions allow us to find a comprehensive list from the unzipped typography.

We are often familiar with many typographical marks, but only a few of them themselves. These glyphs have an interesting history of evolution, they survived the torture of history, and ended up being widely used by us. Now, they mostly appear in our keyboards, software, and some frequently used places, so it is necessary for us to know their historical origins and how to use them.

Have you ever had trouble finding fonts? Of course, everyone has. This is a how-to article that teaches you how to choose a font. These metrics are included in Robin Williams' great book, The Non-Designers Type Book, and I recommend prioritizing the top 5 in every print run. Think carefully about it the next time you choose a font.

http://typographica.org/on-typography/making-geometric-type-work/
Geometric or modular typefaces are a natural starting point when graphic designers start experimenting with design. Illustrators and other project contributors provide us with some simple collections of elements that can be used to create decent letters: circles, squares, triangles, for example. This is my usual method when I get frustrated with commercial fonts. To fit simpler but stricter rules, I tried to distort each character so that one glyph was exotic and more legible than the others.
