Abstract

This quote from Bringhurst’s master work, The Elements of Typographic Style, Second Edition (Hartley & Marks Publishers, 2002), sums up the essence of type in Flash. The words we put on the stage and subsequently put into motion are usually well chosen. They have to be, because they are the communication messengers, providing the user with access to understanding the message you are trying to relay. In this chapter, we focus on using type to communicate the message your client is delivering.
