The font weight determines how thick or thin the font displays on the screen. This is mostly an issue of personal preference. To ensure the widest variety of people can use your font in a way they like, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s best to offer multiple weights<\/a> beyond regular and bold. Try to include a few varieties between 100 and 900 in the numeric-font weight value system.<\/p>\n One of the biggest \u00e2\u20ac\u201c if not the<\/em> biggest \u00e2\u20ac\u201c pet peeve for graphic designers is kerning<\/a>. Kerning is how the letters are spaced. Too close, and they seem tight and difficult to read. Too far, and they appear distant but still hard to read. In order to achieve pleasant and readable type, research common kerning practices. Play around with your design to ensure that you find the best, most proportionate spacing possible.<\/p>\n Though you cannot judge a book by its cover, most people will judge a font by its presentation graphic<\/a>. This is the first opportunity to show off how fabulous your font is, so don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t get stuck creating a boring background. Create a graphic that explores the inspiration behind the font or utilizes it in a way you expect your buyers will. Consider the best colors, size, and angle. And don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t forget to name it something catchy.<\/p>\n The best fonts are versatile and flexible. That means your fonts should have features that give them the mobility to be adapted in a variety of ways. Things like ligatures, stylistic alternates, and small caps dramatically increase both the usefulness and value of your fonts.<\/p>\n Everyone likes a little bit extra\u00e2\u20ac\u201da bonus, an unexpected addition that comes free\u00e2\u20ac\u201dso make sure your font pack comes with some bonus goodie features<\/a>. For example, vintage badges of military insignia for an army-inspired vintage font, or skulls for a Halloween font. Bonuses can come in many varieties, but they should have a strong correlation to your font.<\/p>\n Many designers don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t bother with this suggestion, which is what makes it such a great secret. Adding some stylish connecting words<\/a> to your fonts instantly elevates you above the majority of font designers. For anyone making business headers, posters, postcards, invitations, or other small pieces that don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t require large tracts of content, connecting words \u00e2\u20ac\u201c such as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153and,\u00e2\u20ac \u00e2\u20ac\u0153we,\u00e2\u20ac \u00e2\u20ac\u0153my,\u00e2\u20ac \u00e2\u20ac\u0153as,\u00e2\u20ac \u00e2\u20ac\u0153with,\u00e2\u20ac \u00e2\u20ac\u0153without,\u00e2\u20ac \u00e2\u20ac\u0153love,\u00e2\u20ac and hundreds of others \u00e2\u20ac\u201c will prove to be a great benefit to many buyers.<\/p>\n This one should go without saying, but we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll say it anyway. Include a variety of file types<\/a> to ensure the largest pool of consumers will be able to use your font design. Some common font file types include EPS, .AI, .TTF, and .OTF.<\/p>\n \nWant more great tips for selling items on Creative Market?
