Fontstand font user survey.

Fontstand font user survey.

We’re are launching an independent industry-wide survey for font users. We want to hear about your experiences: What works? What’s confusing or frustrating? What would you change? Your answers will help us decide how licensing works within the Fontstand Cooperative.

The Saturday program of Fontstand conference was opened by Tobias Frere-Jones recounting the research and design process behind New York City Football Club’s new family of typefaces. The city’s history becomes the material for the identity of a modern sports team, and a bond with citizens and fans.
