Are you a graphic designer? Do you know the difference between a font and a typeface? Do your eyes light up when conversations turn to ems, kerning, and baseline grids? If you answered yes to these questions, then The Typography Manual for the iPhone and iPod Touch is for you!
The Typography Manual has several useful features and resources for designers, including a visual type anatomy glossary, a font size ruler, an em calculator, and enough content to fill a 60-page book. It has all the essentials of a desk reference in a pocket resource.
My name is Pol Pérez and I was born in 1988 in Barcelona. Since October 2006 I’ve been studing a bachelor in graphic design—which I haven’t finished yet—in the school Elisava in Barcelona. From time to time I work on my own in personal or commisioned projects, but most of my projects come from my practice as a student.
Swiss Legacy, by the initiative of Art Director Xavier Encinas, is a blog focused on typography, graphic design and inspirational matters.
