Chapter 3. Web Fonts and Services

We've worked 'til now with web safe fonts, which are a very small selection of a beautiful, varied world.

So it's time for us to dive deeper into it, choose from a higher variety of fonts, and make your perfect, custom design readable in our browser without resorting to images – which wouldn't be easily indexable by SEO bots.

We will look at the above using free and paid options, the more the merrier! So we're going to explore them, with their pros and cons.

We are going to guide you through the pros and cons of the most famous services and foundries to embed beautiful typefaces in your websites, using CSS and simple JavaScript so that you'll know which ones are better for you. We will also look at your aims and scope of the project – and why.

After all, aren't you a little bit tired of always using Helvetica or Arial? Have you ever wanted to use Verlag in a safe way on your web pages?

Wonder no more...
