For the task today, in class we did a discussion about what fonts are appropriate and which ones should be forbidden when writing a double page spread for a magazine. We discussed the difference between Serif Fonts and Sans-serif Fonts. It is morally said that Serif Fonts should be used in the creation of double page spread, this is because of the small flicks at the end and corners of the letters, this will make the type more eligible and will stop confusion between the letters. For example, if using a Sans-serif Font, sometimes the letters can look the same so the reader might be confused by the I and the l, but because of the flicks in the appropriate places it will tell the reader which letter it is meant to be and the flow of the reading will not be stopped.
