Recommendations

  • Try to limit different type sizes in applications – a maximum of three is optimal.
  • The standard alignment for all text is flush left/ragged right.
  • Fonts need adjustment in letter spacing and sometimes kerning, otherwise the characters will appear too “loose”. The word spacing and leading also need tighter adjustments in large type size to look right.
  • Column widths change due to the size of layout/copy. Line lengths should not be too long 40 – 45 characters is optimal. It is important to the overall impression that text blocks have well-balanced proportions.
