Use Type to Convey Your Brand

Achieve typographic consistency with web fonts

Web Fonts from Ascender solves the problems with establishing typographic consistency across print, broadcast and web media.

For years web designers were limited to various techniques to use commercial fonts or custom fonts. Some methods include converting headline text to graphics, employing image replace techniques or vector graphics files. Another approach was to simply use “web-safe” fonts like Arial, Georgia, Times New Roman or Verdana.

Using the @font-face rule in CSS allows a font to be downloaded from a web server. But posting fonts to web servers is prohibited by almost all commercial font licenses. Further, there are a variety of web font formats and CSS rules necessary to achieve compatibility with each of the popular web browsers.

To solve these issues, Ascender is proud to introduce Web Fonts from Ascender.

Web Fonts from Ascender addresses the needs of web designers seeking to use their existing publication or corporate identity fonts in their web sites using @font-face and CSS.
