Typekit
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 314: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Typekit is a service which allows designers and developers to use high-quality fonts in their work through a subscription plan to their font library.[1] Fonts may be used on customers' websites or synced via Creative Cloud to applications on their computers.[2]
Characteristics
Typekit is available to the public and allows subscribers to get access under a single licensing agreement to the Typekit font library,[3] which, as of August 2015, consists of more than 1,100 typefaces from a variety of foundries.[4] The fonts are offered as a standalone service and as part of Adobe's Creative Cloud.[5]
The service uses the @font-face CSS property and JavaScript.[1]
Typekit has been hailed as "revolutionary" for its promise to enrich typography on the web and make it more similar to print.[6]
History
Typekit was launched in September 2009 by Small Batch, Inc.,[1] a company run by creators of the Google Analytics service.[7] In October 2011, the service was acquired by Adobe.[8]
Alternatives
Google introduced a competing, free service named Google Web Fonts in May, 2010.[9][10]
Clearleft & OmniTI launched Fontdeck in June, 2010.[11]
Font Bureau and Ascender Corporation launched the Webtype service in October, 2010.[12]
