Reasonable typography created
in HTML can only be reached
with HTML with a lot of time and
energy involved. Appropriate
line spacing is only to realize
with the help of time-consuming
tricks. And even making use
of the few fonts to choose from,
still leaves the designer in
uncertainty. On some screens
they might not been decoded
correctly.
The central challenge is
combining text with a black
background. Large texts are
unsuitable. To split the text into
short passages, to change the color
within the text and to choose the
appropriate color to begin with,
makes it easier to read.
M ost probably continuous text
generated in HTML will never be
really inviting to read, but
reading can be made easier.
Font size and face, small initials
and paragraph spacing, line width
and an economical use of italics
are means of it.
For the future "Cascading Style
Sheets" (CSS) and so-called
"Dynamic Fonts" will make
typographical work easier.
