  ^ As it's only one page from a textbook it's probably a decent idea not to use a different typeface one every page just to use the type designer's work.

  Personally, if this was representative of the book I wouldn't buy it. It's not bad, but it's not earth shattering either.

  I'd dedicate 4 pages to each designer so you can get more in depth, with more samples of their work.

  I'd also work on the spacing of the subheads, and delete the horizontal line as it breaks the page too much.

  • < I would puke if my textbooks changed typeface every few pages. Agree with removing the horizontal rule.ismith
  • Ahh, yes, I didnt pay attention to the fact that the book is about type designers and not just Zapf.Josev
