A great web typography resource

There is so many things you have to master to truly achieve a great webdesign, and I have to confess I have a still a lot to learn as far as web typography is concerned. This occured to me reading an interresting article about "CSS vertical rythm". That’s how I discovered the very comprehensive http://webtypography.net/.

Of course, there are many things you already do based on common sense and experience, but this helps setting guidelines and also you can use a handy tool to define a good rythm : http://drewish.com/tools/vertical-rhythm

Thought I’d share

Thanks David

when setting type I also find the use of a horizonal and vertical baseline grid handy, this can help you determine text sizing and spacing for headings and paragraphs also. A list apart has a page http://www.alistapart.com/articles/settingtypeonthewebwith some useful links to sites like Mark Boulton and others where grids, typography and other design related topics are discussed. Cameron has some handy background grids that can be worth downloading also http://cameronmoll.com/archives/2006/12/gridding_the_960/

Hope it helps also
