Let's start talking about the font size or rather about typography, which traditionally splits up into
serif and sans serif, also known as strokes and lines, given the fact this is a pretty theoretical
lesson I'd like to show you, in addition to the differences between the two types of font size, the
type of application which in my opinion may be the best fit for the serif type and for the sun serif
type.
When we talk about Serif, we refer to those stretching strokes which are normally orthogonal, placed
at the very end of the characters, which help make font style more elegant.
In the case of the slide you are viewing right now, the font used is called Meriweather, which is
a safe font offered by Google font.
In addition to this font side, there are, for example, Rebadow Slab, Laura Bitzer and many more.
You can easily find them just by going through the font dot Google dot com page.
Instead, when we talk about the sun sheriff, or also said stakes, as I said at the beginning of the
video, we can explain them as linear characters, basically appearing in contrast with the other components
of the pages.
They are considered across the websites to be the most readable and most modern fonts nowadays, and
they, too, are available within Google font.
And this slide, we are using the open sans font, which is very popular online in addition to Rebadow
or Railway, for example.
Regarding the use of these types of funds, we can say that the same font with embellishing strokes
are usually employed, for example, in online newspapers or magazines, given the fact they look like
the classic old style newspapers and magazines.
Therefore, let's assume you have to create a blog.
These might be the right fonts for you, of course, in case the task to accomplish for a website where
refer to a luxurious gold or to an elegant product.
This type of font is always recommended.
For all the other needs, then there's the sun serif, the so-called stick's.
These phones were conceived for an impact, HUZE that he's a use enabling website to stand out for this
reason.
These are used, above all, for commercial activities.
There isn't a clear cut distinction for assigning the best type of phone to the right website.
It's good, though, to have some references like those I've just provided you with that might give
you some prompts in selecting the one or the other font.
No need to say.
There are also some more specific font styles, more or less suitable to a page.
You must be very careful with spacing, alignment and dimension of the text, as we will see in the
next lessons.
