There is an inherant problem, if the font you specify isn’t on the viewers computer it won’t render in that font. So as designers and developers we end up selecting the ones that we can safely assume is available on most computers today. So most pages use Arial, Helvetica, or Georgia as their typefaces… and the world of the web remains slightly more bland.

But there are quite a few high quality typefaces that are available on most new computer systems and you can always fall back on the common ones. Of course there are options like creating images, dynamic headlines, and siFR… but all of these techniques increase load time and development time. There are plenty of good reasons to be strategic in the font choices rather than using additional technology. I am shocked at how rarely I see anyone taking advantage of these type options, so here is a quick and dirty list of fonts you should and could use in your desgns and stylesheets.

There also is a good guide to Pre-Installed Fonts in Linux, Mac, and Windows.

These are the basic foundations of what you need to learn to learn typography and it is essential for any designer to know how to classify type.

The book goes through the 10 type classifications with a brief history as well as the key characteristics of each.

It’s a big improvement on the ’standard’ listings in that you can highlight your personal favorites and that users can add sites on which everybody can vote meaning good sites are always on top.
