  • Rezensionen
"Even as publishing marches into the Kindle’s cold clutches, publishers are exploring the unique qualities of print. TASCHEN’s Letter Fountain is a gorgeous, borderline excessive celebration of the many riches of typography."

  • FAQ - Häufig gestellte Fragen
Reader's Question: Could you tell me, does Letterfountain include information about websites where I can download the fonts discussed?

Joep Pohlen: Letter Fountain has extensive indexes and one of them is the Index of typefaces and another is the Index of type designers. In both indexes you will find the foundries behind each typeface mentioned in the book. With that information you can easily find a distributor on the internet.
Above that I can give you a couple of internet links were you can find most of the typefaces:
www.myfonts.com
www.fontshop.com
www.fonts.com
For finding similar fonts you can look at www.identifont.com
There are many more but on these sites you will find 99% of the quality fonts presented in Letter Fountain, also those from individual designers and small foundries.
