If you're searching for a font that goes beyond ho-hum, this book is for you. Today's computers provide a selection of fonts that serve reasonably well for workaday letters and publications, but have become utterly boring from overuse. To attract a reader's attention, you need an original font.

This third volume of Indie Fonts provides a showcase collection of 1,600 new fonts from today's hottest digital type foundries, and features the best work of these designers. As with the first two volumes, Indie Fonts 3 will help readers find some of the highest quality fonts available today.

Type styles range from the best of Matthew Carter's classic designs to the latest irreverence of ingoFonts. Designers searching for unique typefaces will find what they are looking for, whether historical revivals or futuristic techno faces.

On the included CD, you'll also get a collection of 53 bonus fonts.
