With literally thousands of fonts now available for download, it's no wonder that nearly every designer needs a system for managing them. In Font Management, Ted LoCascio discusses various font types, where to download both free and for-purchase fonts online, and how to manually manage fonts on both the Mac and Windows platforms. He also profiles a number of third-party font management applications, including Suitcase, FontAgent Pro, Font Book, Font Reserve, and Linotype FontExplorer, and explains how to handle fonts for print output and electronic distribution.

Topics Include:
  • Defining font types
  • Purchasing fonts online
  • Managing fonts in Mac OS X
  • Managing fonts in Windows XP
  • Understanding Mac and Windows font
  • management tools
  • Collecting fonts for output

The movies are recorded in pixel-perfect quality, and include the authors' narration and movements as they teach the subject matter. Courses include the same project files that the instructors use, so you can follow along at your own pace. lynda.com tutorials are great for visual learners and people who like to learn by doing. Topics include software applications, workflow optimization, tips and techniques, and much more. Play, fast-forward, and rewind for easy learning.
