Which Fonts for Which Design

While Serif Fonts are recommended for print material, sans serif fonts are of better use on the web. Since online text only has up to 300 dots per inch (as compared with the 1000 dots per inch of printed materials), the clear outline of sans serif makes it more readable in smaller sizes.

Of course you can also combine these two to get more out of your text.

• For prints, you can choose use sans serif for titles or headings, while using serif fonts for the bulk of the reading material.
• However, for online publications or content, it’s recommended to switch these two up by using serif fonts for the titles and headings and using sans serif for the rest of the content.

Have Fun with the Sans

• Turn your blog into a work of art by incorporating one of the more regular fonts.
• If you are making a text-only logo, go for the less common and more stylized fonts (either the rounded or textured ones). However, if your logo includes an image, don’t overcrowd it, and choose the traditional fonts.
• In the case of events, try using a font with a few swirls or something a bit more grunge to make a striking design that pops out at your audience.
