I am a typography enthusiast. I even spent money buying fonts, just for personal use. So I would like to point out that, even more so than with colors, there is a huge difference between using typography for print publishing and web publishing.

In print publishing, you are in full control of fonts or typefaces (this is not a typography book, so allow me to use these terms interchangeably) that you use in your work. You just have to make sure that all the fonts that you plan to use are installed on the system that holds your Desktop Publishing program, so you can use them for your development. Next, make sure that they are embedded in the final document you send to your printer, and that both you and your printing company have a legitimate license for all the fonts used. Then all the people who will read the printed copy or even a PDF version online, will see it just the way you designed it.

When publishing on the web, the text that the visitor will see on your page can only be displayed...
