3. Your welcome Kate.

   Anthony,
   Welcome to Just Creative Design then! Good to have you around! Enjoy.

4. usefull, but the actual DIN 16518 clasification is quite more accurate (germans, you know, they clasifie every single matter). Is not perfect, but all others are even worst ;>)

   nice job, anyway

5. Dave and Kienstra, your welcome 🙂

   Miguel, I did not really understand what you meant? Could you please clarify? Thanks.

6. Wow, great resource! Much appreciated.

9. well, the clasification you gave is rather old…This Type sytematic from the “Deutsche Institut fuer Normung” (DIN)-in my opinion- is more accurate.

35. Hey Jacob. I was roaming the pages of “Fondos de Pantalla” and came across your ad for this free ebook. Thanks a bunch. If it’s like everything else on your site, I’m sure it’s very informative.

    I’m new to the graphic design game, and have been frequenting your website for info and inspiration for a short while now. Keep it up man. I think I just may subscribe to your site while i’m here.

36. Hey Jacob

    Thanks for the wonderful font book. I admired how you were able to bring out artistic design with text vector art in the background and rendering them in PDF. Awesome!

    On the first page, second column, second line, should there be an ‘is’ instead of ‘it’?

37. Hello Jacob, I’m new to your blog but I’m already so addicted to it! I never thought I’d be learning about design in my summer break as much (or maybe more) than I do in my collge time!

    So I really just want to thank you a lot for this website! And also I would love to have a copy of this Type eBook since i’m sure it will help me a lot as a student. But even though I subscribed I can’t see the password.

    I hope you don’t mind e-mailing me ?
    my e-mail : [email protected]
    Thank you again very much!!

38. I just finished reading your book and it was VERY informative. I also would like to thank you for such a great blog, I did learn a lot from reading your articles!

39. Hey Jacob

    Thanks for the wonderful font book. I admired how you were able to bring out artistic design with text vector art in the background and rendering them in PDF. Awesome!

40. i Zach, Yup for the typography class. I tried to make it so I could come back to it. I have also printed it out.

41. Hi JC,

    Saw the first page of ‘Type Classification eBook. Seems an exciting work. IF you don’t mind, may I mark a typing error on page 1 item 6, second line? After “font specimen sheet” the word ‘it’ should be replaced by ‘is’…I think.

    I’m not trying to be smart, just to let you know with how much interest and concentration I started reading the book. Will post my comments after I finish the book. Can’t wait. Cheers.

42. it seems Good
    I love Typography

43. I am new in this graphic design field, and your blog helping me a lot, keep up the good work.

44. Hola te hablo en español 🙂 Gracias por el Libro pero aún no lo pude bajar 🙁 Encontré la contraseña en el rss, pero se me abre una ventana donde me pide ser registrada en wordpress

45. The type book is brilliant! Thanks for posting that. I’ll get all my students to download it. And look forward to your talk at CityTech on Thursday.

46. I hope (someday soon) to be able to produce and share so interesting things similar to this amazing ebook.
    Blogs and sites with thoughs, tips and resources
    are keeping the evolution of design, web design and illustration (amongst other multimedia areas of knowledge)alive and healthy.

    Excellent job!

47. I love it so much! Nice typography solution, and I love the old feeling of the design too. I’ve read many of your articles, very interesting information; I really appreciate what you’re doing, thanks a lot for the ebook! I like your energetic & happy style, and very glad I accidently found you.

48. This is an awesome guide. Well done. Thanks for the book.

49. AWESOME. Really appreciate your efforts and sharing Jacob.

59. hey man, i just love your blog. you are such a great resource for me. thx for all the great and informative blogs you post here. i love them.

60. Great resource, thanks for sharing this e-book!

    Is there a resource where I could see which fonts are ‘compatible’ with each other? For example which font is great for title(s) and which for body text?

    • Peter, try this post:

61. Thank you Jacob, this is exactly what I was looking for.

62. Perfect design, perfect information. A “must be in the library” book (as i call it). Thanx for sharing it…

63. Special thanks to you.You are wonderful.

64. Loads of thanks for this guide. It’s not only informative, it’s also a lesson in design. At the risk of sounding like a faultfinder, I must point out to you that in several pages where you have “angle of stress” enclosed in singe quotes, the opening quote is a grave accent and the closing quote a typewriter apostrophe. I know a typophile like you wouldn’t want this kind of “typo” to sneak through.

    Thanks again for the freebie.

65. Great design , thanks for you.

66. Thank you. This quality and comprehensiveness is not present in typography books and I have read at list 5 of them.

67. Hi Jacob, I have subscribed but like some others I can’t find the password to the file, I would appreciate it if you could email it to me.

    On another note, congratulations on your website I always come to find great contents.

    Thanks, Jordi
