On this week’s episode we talk to Stephen Coles of Typographica and FontShop. We talk to him a bit about his own work in the type world, typographic diversity, selling your type, and why this really is the golden age of typography.
Next week on the show we’ll have Armin and Bryony of UnderConsideration and Brand New on the show. If you have questions for them, email them to us at readbetweentheleading@gmail.com, call 646-402-5686 ext 20248, or reply to us on Twitter @rbtlshow.

This week on the show we talk all about type on the web. We discuss recent developments like Typekit, Font Bureau’s Permission table, and Spiekermann’s new typeface Axel. We also talk a bit about our own idea for a non-profit type foundry, a foundry based on donations that commissions type designers to design web fonts we can release for free on the web.
We’d love to hear your feedback about our non-profit type foundry idea. We’d also love to hear any news (or any corrections) about some of this new technology we’re talking about. Feel free to leave us a comment here, email us at readbetweentheleading@gmail.com, or find us on twitter @rbtlshow.
