Acknowledgements
Thanks to everyone who has paid for this website. Your contributions are appreciated.
Thanks to the dogs: Hector (left) and Henry (right) their advice was invaluable.
Most of the images in the website are my own or of my creation (which probably explains the poor quality).
The exceptions are the photographs of Capital magazine in Figure 3.1; these images are reproduced courtesy of the Herb Lubalin Study Center at The Cooper Union (41 Cooper Square, Room LL119, New York) — lubalincenter.cooper.edu.
In Figure 3.4, the three images of Chester are courtesy of Michael D. Beckwith and the image of the Houses of Parliament is courtesy of Samel Zeller. The image of the metal type face (Figure 3.9) is by Hannes Wolf. All these images are via the unsplash website and are used under the creative common zero licence (reproduce below).
The fonts used were created by Mr Matthew Butterick and are Equity (serif), Concourse (sans serif) and Triplicate (monospace); I refer to them collectively on the website as the Equity fonts. If you want to use them you can buy them here.
The downloadable version of the website uses the open source fonts: PT Serif, Source Sans Pro, PT Mono, Carrois Gothic SC and Andada Regular SC. These are available from.font squirrel.
All of these fonts with the exception of PT Serif are available under the sil open font licence. PT Serif is available under the paratype pt sans free font licence (both are reproduce below).
The website uses various third-party software and files, I hope I’ve adequately and correctly made notification of them on the website and in the source code — I do so again here:

SIL Open Font License v1.10 Preamble The goals of the Open Font License (OFL) are to stimulate worldwide development of collaborative font projects, to support the font creation efforts of academic and linguistic communities, and to provide a free and open framework in which fonts may be shared and improved in partnership with others. The OFL allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and redistributed freely as long as they are not sold by themselves. The fonts, including any derivative works, can be bundled, embedded, redistributed and/or sold with any software provided that any reserved names are not used by derivative works. The fonts and derivatives, however, cannot be released under any other type of license. The requirement for fonts to remain under this license does not apply to any document created using the fonts or their derivatives. Definitions “Font Software” refers to the set of files released by the Copyright Holder(s) under this license and clearly marked as such. This may include source files, build scripts and documentation. “Reserved Font Name” refers to any names specified as such after the copyright statement(s). “Original Version” refers to the collection of Font Software components as distributed by the Copyright Holder(s). “Modified Version” refers to any derivative made by adding to, deleting, or substituting — in part or in whole — any of the components of the Original Version, by changing formats or by porting the Font Software to a new environment. “Author” refers to any designer, engineer, programmer, technical writer or other person who contributed to the Font Software. Permission & conditions Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of the Font Software, to use, study, copy, merge, embed, modify, redistribute, and sell modified and unmodified copies of the Font Software, subject to the following conditions:
Termination This license becomes null and void if any of the above conditions are not met.

In no event shall the copyright holder be liable for any claim, damages or other liability, including any general, special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, whether in an action of contract, tort or otherwise, arising from, out of the use or inability to use the font software or from other dealings in the font software. |
