Resource of the Week: Butterick’s Practical Typography

The corporate IT world is filled with many unwitting typographers. Do you design or implement software UIs? Do you create PowerPoints? Do you write documents to inform or convince? Do you do anything beyond just plain text e-mail?

If you answered yes, you’re a typographer. Being a better typographer means better communication with users, fellow employees, and leadership. Who doesn’t want that?

My favorite resource for learning about typography is Butterick’s Practical Typography. It’s not only thorough, but it is written by someone who understands both print and the web.

Check it out at https://practicaltypography.com/. If you like it, make sure to support Matthew. He’s created an amazing resource for every typographer out there, witting or unwitting.
