Task 1

                                                         Like:                                         

 The reason for liking the first font “Press style serif” is due to its solidity and slightly worn out effect, it looks strong and professional. The font really does give the impression of belonging to the press of mid 20^th Century.

I included “Gulag” because of its raw and industrial appearance. One could imagine seeing this font on an abandoned factory or mill. It is far from beautiful, but it is a very solid font. The only issue is that it looks slightly stretched out.

“Uncle Typewriter” was probably the messiest of all the fonts in the typewriter category. The ink stains and large imprinted outlines of the letters give this font character, it is experienced, it has been around for a good while, and gives the impression it will be around for a bit longer.

 Dislike:                                                                                              
 “D3 Digitalism” is the first of the disliked fonts. Constructed from dashes, it can hardly be called dashing, annoying if anything. This font is difficult to read, and belongs in an 80's low budget action movie.

Of all annoying features, “For the love of hate” has one that jumps to the front of the line. The lower case “g, a, e” look as though they were constructed from lemon outlines, and the rest of the letters are

just too plain.

I very much dislike any form of 'bubble writing' and “Eve–Isabelle” grew a bit beyond that. Combining soft turns and ends, with the occasional sharp cut off's.
