他們和愛因斯坦一樣,因自己的發明而后悔
????6.Comic Sans字體 ????Comic Sans字體似乎成了人見人恨的過街老鼠,網上甚至還發起過“抵制Comic Sans字體”活動。它的發明人文森特?康奈爾為了促進兒童學習電腦的積極性,于1994年發明了這種字體。但后來該字體被微軟的Windows操作系統吸納為標準字體之一,似乎有了自己的生命,不過它出現的地方往往都應該由一種更莊重的字體替代。????Comic Sans字體已經成了康奈爾的負擔。康奈爾目前供職于一家排版工作室。他表示,每次看見它都覺得糟心。他對《華爾街日報》表示:“如果你喜歡它,那么你基本上不懂排版。如果你討厭它,你還是不懂排版,而且你應該找一個其它愛好。” |
????6.Comic Sans ????Comic Sans is the whimsical typeface everybody loves to hate, which has inspired the online Ban Comic Sans campaign.Vincent Connare, the man responsible for its existence, created it for a computer education program for children in 1994. But once it was included as a standard typeface in the Microsoft Windows operating system, it took on life of its own, mostly going places a more dignified choice should go. ????It’s become the legacy of Connare, who works at a typography studio and says he cringes whenever he see Comic Sans. "If you love it, you don't know much about typography,” he told the Wall Street Journal, adding, "if you hate it, you really don't know much about typography, either, and you should get another hobby." |
