Last year, many of you completed an online survey related to personality of typefaces (fonts). Once again we are asking for your input. We have revamped the study in hopes of generating more findings related to the perception of typefaces. The new survey features a different text sample for the stimuli, new semantic scales, and a few new questions at the end. Additionally, each volunteer will rate a random sample of 20 typefaces out of a total of 40 that we are studying. The final portion of our new survey assesses the way you commonly use typefaces and your attitudes toward typeface usage.
We know this is a busy time of year, but again we would like to invite you to complete this survey at http://www.shaikh.us/fontstudy. Results will be summarized in a future issue of Usability News. Thanks for your help!
