Typography

The typeface used in the Roseville logo is Museo Slab. The typeface used for paragraph copy throughout the Roseville website and print materials is "Museo Sans" at a weight of 300, and headlines are "Museo Sans Condensed" at a weight of 500. These typefaces can be synced from Typekit.com with a subscription to the Adobe Creative Suite, or they can be purchased from Fontspring.

Following are some examples of the fonts in various sizes so you can see how they will fit together on the website. For examples of how these fonts are used in print materials, see the print materials page.

This is what a link looks like on normal text.

This is a Heading 1 element with a link applied to it

The Heading 1 element is at the top of the page, and below are some additional styles for testing purposes, mixed in with some typography-best-practices tips from a designer who just loves to bring up stuff like this at dinner parties.

Heading 2: headings should have ample margins.

Headings should have appropriate margins in your site styles, so you shouldn't have to hit enter an extra time to give your text room to breathe. If you're tempted to do that, call your designer. It's their fault, not yours.

Heading 3: Sentence. Spacing.

Modern fonts are designed with ample space after the period character. If you put two spaces at the end of a sentence when you type, you probably learned to type on a typewriter, where the letter 'i' takes up the same space as a 'w'. If not, you may have learned to type from someone who did. Not that there's anything wrong with that. But modern fonts allow for appropriate spacing after a period. One space is all that is necessary.

Heading 4: don't abuse the little dash character

Alright, I'm on a rollβ€”I have more pretentious-designer-pet-peeves where that one came from. Check out the character between "roll" and "I" at the beginning of this paragraph. That's an 'em' dash, and on a mac you can get it by holding down option+shift+dash. There's also an "en" dash, which you should use whenever you have a span of time, like 3–5pm. The idea behind the names is that the biggest is about the width of the "m" character, and the smaller is the width of the letter "n."

Here's a blockquote. Don't believe everything you read on the internet.

*High five*, you read all the way to the bottom.
