We hope you see the difference.<\/li>\n<li>Provide a well-developed hierarchy of the text by means of kerning, tracking, font sizes.<\/li>\n<li>Remember that contrasting colors stand out more. That\u2019s why you should use them for main section headings. The larger the heading you are going to use, the more interesting the font can be.<\/li>\n<li>Use the <a title=\"Type Tester\" href=\"http:\/\/www.typetester.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Type Tester<\/a> online application that to test different typefaces.<\/li>\n<li>And the most important &#8211; be open to new ideas and experiments, since <a title=\"Web Design Trends 2011\/2012 Part #1\" href=\"\/blog\/web-design-trends-2012-part1\">typography is a very powerful tool <\/a>that consists of many tiny details that definitely aren\u2019t insignificant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We hope that the creative and extraordinary fonts suggested above will serve as a huge source of inspiration for you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are lots of fonts available on the Internet.
