Opening and Using the WebINK Library
Once connected to the WebINK service, you can browse available fonts by opening the WebINK Library. To
open the library, click on the icon.
The WebINK Library lists thousands of fonts available for use in your Type Drawers. You can use many of the
same tools for locating and previewing fonts in the WebINK Library as are available to use in your desktop font
management practices.
To sort the list of library fonts, click the heading of any column.
Use QuickFind to filter the list of fonts. Enter some text in the QuickFind field, and only fonts with that text in the
name, foundry, class, or family will be displayed. For example, typing ab in the QuickFind field might display
(among others) Amicable, BossaNovaBold, and several fonts with the “Slab serif” classification.
CSS Basics
The pages in this section provide an introduction to some of the concepts and benefits of CSS, especially how it
relates to using WebINK fonts on your websites.
If you haven’t started using CSS on your web pages, there is no time like the present.
What is CSS?
Despite the power inherent in CSS, the concept of style sheets and the basics of web styles are fairly
straightforward.
Terminology
• rule - the definition of how a browser should display an HTML element
• selector - the HTML element that you want to style
• declaration - a property of the HTML element that you want to change, and the value that you want that
property to have
• property - the style attribute of an HTML element, such as color or size
• value - the actual look you want the HTML element to have, such as blue or 10pt
At its most basic, a rule consists of a selector and one or more declarations:
Selector Declaration Declaration
p { color : blue ; font-size : 10pt ; }
Property Value Property Value
Cascading
You can have multiple style sheets for your web page that “cascade” together to define the overall look of your
page. Rules can be defined in multiple places, and where a rule is defined determines its priority. You can even
define one property for an element (such as color) in one style sheet, and define another property (such as
font-size) in a different style sheet. If you tell your web page to use both those style sheets, then your
elements will inherit the color from one style sheet and the font-size from the other.
