توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب :
بر اساس وب سایت محبوب، تایپوگرافی برای وکلا اولین راهنمای در مورد اصول تایپوگرافی است که به طور خاص برای وکلا و سایر متخصصانی که نوشتن در کار آنها مرکزی است، هدف قرار می گیرد. نویسنده متیو باتریک، یک تایپوگراف و وکیل مجرب که در هاروارد تحصیل کرده است، این افسانه را که اسناد حقوقی و تجاری با تایپوگرافی عالی ناسازگار هستند را از بین می برد. Butterick توضیح می دهد که چگونه با ابزارهایی که در حال حاضر دارید به سرعت و به راحتی به نتایج حرفه ای برسید. موضوعات شامل کاراکترهای ویژه صفحه کلید، طول خط، اندازه نقطه، انتخاب فونت، عنوان، و خط فاصله است. این کتاب همچنین شامل آموزش هایی در مورد انواع خاصی از اسناد مانند رزومه، یادداشت های تحقیقاتی و حرکت است.
برای نسخه Kindle، Butterick تلاش کرده است تا حد امکان به نسخه چاپی وفادار بماند و عملکردهای جدیدی مانند ارجاعات متقابل قابل کلیک را برای استفاده از پلتفرم دیجیتال اضافه کرده است.
متیو باتریک مدرک لیسانس خود را گرفت. مدرک magna cum laude از دانشگاه هاروارد در رشته بصری

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :
Based on the popular website, Typography for Lawyers is the first guide to the essentials of typography aimed specifically at lawyers and other professionals whose writing is central to their work. Author Matthew Butterick, a Harvard-trained typographer and practicing attorney, dispels the myth that legal and business documents are incompatible with excellent typography. Butterick explains how to get professional results with the tools you already have quickly and easily. Topics include special keyboard characters, line length, point size, font choice, headings, and hyphenation. The book also includes tutorials on specific types of documents like résumés, research memos, and motions.
For the Kindle version, Butterick has attempted to remain faithful to the print edition as much as possible, and has added new functionality, such as clickable cross references, to take advantage of the digital platform.
Matthew Butterick got his B.A. degree magna cum laude from Harvard University in visual & environmental studies. Butterick’s work is in the permanent collection of the Houghton Library at Harvard.
Butterick started his career as a font designer and engineer, working for David Berlow and Matthew Carter on projects for Apple Computer, Microsoft, Ziff-Davis, and others. Neville Brody featured his work in FUSE, Brody’s journal of experimental typography. Butterick designed Herald Gothic, Wessex, and the popular sans serif family Hermes.
At the beginning of the Internet era, Butterick moved to San Francisco and founded Atomic Vision, a website design and engineering company. Butterick and his staff created award-winning websites for Internet pioneers like CNET, Netscape, Verisign, and Wired magazine. Butterick lectured in the United States and Europe on website development and user-interface design.
Atomic Vision was acquired by open-source software developer Red Hat. Butterick was part of the management team behind Red Hat’s successful IPO and its transition to Internet-based distribution.
Butterick attended UCLA law school and became a member of the California bar in 2007. He handles civil litigation at Butterick Law Corporation (www.buttericklaw.com).
Butterick is also an accomplished pianist and musician whose credits include the San Francisco production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
Butterick lives in the Hollywood Hills with his wife Jessica and Roxy the boxer.
