 John Seguin about Fonts
"Fonts are a gateway to the user interface (UI) and global markets, and in that respect, fonts are revolutionary in the way that they shape the user experience. Text that displays poorly or can't support complex scripts like Arabic or Hindi is ineffective as a global communications tool. The fonts we've developed for mobile phones will allow users to connect clearly and efficiently." "Moreover, our typefaces complement the UI by reflecting human attributes through themes such as 'friendly' or 'athletic,' which have the power to create a user experience that's compelling, personal and satisfying," added Seguin.
