In this exercise, Gill Sans was the typeface used for both the headline and the body copy. Using a sans-serif font for headlines is not a rule, but often commands attention as they are sleek and authoritative in comparison to serif fonts. Sans serif type was first invented by William Caslon IV (1816) and was reserved, as John Kane writes in his A Type Primer, “almost exclusively for headlines” (36). Display fonts (ornamental fonts, such as those that are free to download on ( ) are not legible enough to be used for body copy, but are often selected for headlines as they tend to be more ornate. For print designers, it is a good idea to stay away from system fonts! Web designers have to rely on them for body copy. System fonts (the fonts that are installed on all computers, such as Arial, Chicago, Times, New York, and so on) are usually reserved for the body copy on web pages and they are not typically used as headlines. The scale of the headline often relates to the scale of an accompanying photograph or illustration (it may be the same width or half of the width, for example, as a photograph on the front page of a newspaper). Headlines are typically larger than body copy and maintain a heavier weight on the page than most other elements.
