Le sujet
Most websites use downloadable fonts now, at least at a basic level. But with CSS Level 3 OpenType font features, the widely adopted WOFF format, Chromatic Fonts, and more recently OpenType variable fonts - a single font file that behaves like multiple fonts - the capabilities opening up for typography on the web are extraordinary. In this session, Chris Lilley shows us what's possible today, and in the near future.
