The Story of Verdana
In 1994, Microsoft began a typeface development project which was to forever raise the bar for quality standards of screen type. The goal was to produce a new family of sans serif typefaces as TrueType outline fonts which had exceptional readability. To do the job right would require a team of individuals skilled in art, craft and engineering. For the type designer, they chose the talent of Matthew Carter, and for the technological expertise, they chose Tom Rickner of Monotype Imaging.

Lorem

 

Posted by admin

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Why do we use it?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
