Whilst teaching, Spelbrink (1940) noticed that there was no professional reference book describing the factors that affect the readability of typefaces, such as shape, proportion, contrast, greyscale and many other measurable characteristics. Framing Fonts covers these characteristics for more than 40 of the most popular typefaces. The typographic exercises that are to be found in this publication enforce detailed observation in the selection of fonts.
