TABLETYPE.COM - ABOUT I had always wanted a quicker, easier way to create and use pixel fonts and felt there had to be some simple, HTML-based method of doing it. I also wanted to create one-request webpages (pages that load completely with only one request to the server) that still appeared 'designed' and not just HTML text layouts. Each pixel in these typefaces is represented by an HTML table cell. = There are a couple of advantages to this approach. No font file or imaging software is necessary to create the type If you have a text change, just simply generate more Tabletype at tabletype.com If you copy and use the HTML code, since what would have been an image is pure HTML, that's one less request to the server The font looks the same on every browser and every platform It's FREE There are a few disadvantages to this approach. Tables and table cells were not intended to be used this way. A lot of table cells are needed to generate the type. If you copy and use the HTML code instead of copying the image, alot of type could result in a very heavy page Search robots cannot read the text (maybe an advantage to some people?) Readers cannot copy and paste your text (Again, this may be an advantage to some people.) If you copy and use the HTML code: Because using Tabletype means using a lot of tables on one page, it's recommended that you use Tabletype as headers, footers, blurbs, taglines, and small paragraphs. Anything longer could result in code-intense pages that may render slowly on less powerful computers. If you copy and use the bitmap rendered by the HTML: You've got nothing to worry about. Please take some time to experiment with the various fonts available. Please also contact me if you have any questions or comments. GET STARTED
