The less sophisticated print designers (Zeldman)

December 5th, 2007  |  Published in Internet, Quotes, Art and Design

The less sophisticated [print designers] lament on our behalf that we are stuck with ugly fonts. They wonder aloud how we can enjoy working in a medium that offers us less than absolute control over every atom of the visual experience. What they are secretly asking is whether or not we are real designers. (They suspect that we are not.) But these are the juniors, the design students and future critics. Their opinions are chiefly of interest to their professors, and one prays they have good ones.
