– The search function has been significantly improved by integrating the flash-based FontExplorer functionality.


– Use the Favorites feature to bookmark products, so there’s no need to search for them again.
– As well as the existing FontIdentifier which helps you search for particular fonts, you can now also select any font by content or category.

– The FontSampler displays a font sample in a definable size and color. It also allows you to choose your own text, so you are not restricted to a predefined text. This enables you to compare different fonts while you search for your ideal solution.

Font Shopping on the Internet: a First-Rate Service from a Global Specialist Supplier

Bad Homburg, October 2003 – The new Linotype Library website at www.linotype.com offers a wide choice of fonts and deli-style font shopping - plus ’old-fashioned’ service with that personal touch. The Linotype specialists have added a whole range of new features, and our website now has even more to offer customers looking for in-depth information and a user-friendly site - and even more suggestions for individual solutions.

The new shop has had a complete face-lift, and its new layout provides a clear and comprehensive overview of the entire site. The seamless links between the shop and the font product information have transformed the site into a consistent entity. You can now call up all the information about a font you are interested in at any point, and then decide whether to add it to your list of favorites or buy it immediately.

The ordering process has also been simplified and optimized. You can buy complete font families and different font packages to suit your every need (e.g. Festive Greetings). There are also the new eCDs – CDs that you can download to a platform – which are cheaper and faster than buying the hybrid CD, for those who need an immediate solution.

Additional, enhanced features, combined with Linotype’s recommendations to help you to select the most compatible or optimal solution for your requirements in the Internet shop, turn the process of choosing fonts into a professional typographical advice service:
