Web Typography   A bit of history for you ... In 1983, Apple released Lisa, the first computer with a graphical user interface, and won over graphic design-oriented geeks the world over. The only problem was that there was not much you could do with the things you designed, since the technology did not exist for transferring such complex information to the printed page. Text output was readable, but far from professional quality status. Forget images?. A new company, Adobe came up with PostScript, a page description language that did exactly what was needed: it converted font information for digital display into font information for printing a smooth output. The results, at 300dpi, were promoted as “typesetter quality.” The next necessary component was better on-screen design software. Enter Aldus, a company later acquired by Adobe, and its program PageMaker, the first ever desktop publishing program. Once computer graphics had proved its worth to the printing industry, it was but a small natural step to web design. This was achieved through the witchcraft of HTML and CSS.
