Désormais disponible à un prix d'ami spécial étudiants, La Fontaine aux Lettres se révèle un manuel de typographie indispensable.

Ce livre examine la forme et l'anatomie de chaque lettre de l'alphabet (ainsi que des signes de ponctuation et des caractères spéciaux), mais aussi plus de 150 polices, leur origine et leurs caractéristiques, avec des explications visuelles sous forme de tableaux pleine page où figurent échelle, graisse et alternatives pratiques.

Les références croisées replacent les polices dans un contexte culturel et visuel plus large et soulignent les liens qui existent entre certaines polices et les grandes oeuvres et courants artistiques, de Gutenberg à l'ère numérique.

Une grande attention est également portée au choix de la bonne police pour chaque commande. Ce guide est enrichi d'un manuel pour concevoir des polices sur ordinateur, de conseils sur les règles typographiques, d'une comparaison approfondie entre les polices sans serif et serif et d'un article sur les systèmes et les indications de mesure. L'appendice très complet comporte un index général, un index des typos, un index rassemblant plus de 250 typographes, un index exhaustif de fonderies de caractères, un dictionnaire graphique et une bibliographie pour approfondir vos lectures.

Cet ouvrage a reçu un Certificat d'Excellence typographique du Type Directors Club New York (TDC) en 2010, et le prix red-dot design de la part du Design-Zentrum Nordrhein-Westfalen, en Allemagne.
