Leaden Army
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/XHfvCUMmdD4/
Goudy Fonts is a tribute site, dedicated to the work Frederic and Bertha Goudy and their impact on American typography. I am type is one of Goudy’s more famous essays on the subject. This quote is a bit dated, but I like it. I am the leaden army that conquers the world. I am type. That essay and others can be found in Texts on Type.

Colour management
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/qczdUKDr82w/
Scott Hansen and Alex Cornell have put together an excellent field guide for colour management. On that note, some of the mac people who upgraded to Snow Leopard may be interested in knowing why things seem to be darker with more contrast.
