Creating fonts is an arduous but appreciated science.

Where are the fools​ that said you dont need an Art degree in the 21st century? Please admit them into the nearest psych ward.

Consider how much detail Apple Computer puts into all its devices and marketing? I'd imagine that the same granularity is applied to creating and/or selecting typography for your next project.

What is your font psychology? What compels you to select the right font for the right job; web design, graphics, programming, photography, videography?

'Century' is a typeface. The fonts above are all members of the 'Century' family. Their height is measured in points - the standard unit for printed text. There are about 72 points to one inch.

Making your own font isn’t a waste of time or just for the love of art, sometimes it’s necessary. The huge ocean of fonts doesn’t consist only of impressive works, there are also tons of amateurish fonts and it’s time consuming to select what really work for your project. Besides that, wouldn’t it be an honor to create your own font naming it after you or your girlfriend?

Making a font isn’t an easy task and designing a professional one is tenfold times more difficult. First of all, once you clearly establish that you should create a font it’s highly recommended to be aware that it can’t be realized in few hours, but many hours of work and great attention to small details are needed. Somehow, the process of making a font is mostly the art of fine-tuning. Secondly, if you really want to obtain a good result it is mandatory to have a solid background in the field; there are rules to respect, but before respecting them, you should know them. Fortunately, the font lovers created amazing blogs where every hidden aspect of this art/science (by the way, which is your opinion about typography, is it art or science?) is well explained and if you are unsure about something that started with Century.
