  190. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Choosing a type font can prove be one of the most exciting steps that lead you to a well designed piece.</p>
  191. <p>Starting with a strong copy line,<br />
  192. scroll through a font library and experiment.</p>
  193. <p>With so many wonderful fonts available you may have to play around a bit before finding the one that suits your needs</p>
  194. <p>Ask yourself what are my important letters?<br />
  195. <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Do we need upper &amp; lower case?</span><br />
  196. Will we need bold, italic?<br />
  197. Are we going to knock out color or not&#8230;<br />
  198. Serif or Sans<br />
  199. How will ascenders &amp; descenders look?<br />
  200. Web or print, just a few points to consider</p>
  201. <p>Once you&#8217;ve figured out a few technical requirements,<br />
  202. ask yourself what emotion are you trying to evoke&#8230;.</p>
  203. <p>Then play&#8230;<br />
  204. If key letters and words visually fit together nicely<br />
  205. (kerning is still a useful concept)</p>
  206. <p>The right font size, letter weight and color will subconsciously enhance the thought.</p>
  207. <p>If you have a little time<br />
  208. Check out<br />
  209. www.fonts.squirrel.com<br />
  210. And<br />
  211. www.dafonts.com<br />
