This book is exactly what it says. I would not have bought this book if it wasn’t required for a class. For one, it is just a list of fonts on every page with different point size examples. Two, it will not help you with typography in any way. I prefer to make my own style books based on the fonts that I own. It is frustrating to look at fonts in a book that has fonts that I do not. The best thing about this book is the fact that it is what it is, a font style book. I will probably never open it again and will probably just use it to buy time with a client that doesn’t know what kind of typeface they want.

Adobe’s fonts are so widely available in the otf format (they explain it in the book) that I try to use them whenever possible. This book makes it easy to find the fonts I need.

I love this reference book!
It helps designers to choose a better typeface in an efficient way. Over 2,000 gorgeous fonts are arranged very well. Thanks for the make-up, paper and book-binding, you can browse these fonts pleasantly.
Basic OpenType introductions are included in English, French and German. Small icon shows glyph supported indicates the range of using of each typeface.
If you were a font afficionado, you would not miss it!

This book is everything that I expected it to be. It sits on my desk and gets pulled out everytime I’m working on a project. Great investment.
