Let the opening quotation mark hang out into the left margin and align the second type line on the first text letter. Used carefully in the right place, a hanging quote is a real grace note. Using hang quotes may seem like a typographic trifle, but what a powerful one! 15 Figures and Sans Serif Type Don't Always Mix If you are setting text in which chemical formulas will appear, be careful with sans serif faces. In some, the lowercase letter l and figure 1 as well as the cap I are so much alike you can't tell them apart. In text, that's usually no problem; in chemical formulas they can be a major headache. Some typefaces have i's, l's, and 1's that look similar, as does Vogue Lite, shown here. 16 Consider All-cap Faces for Special Uses Some typefaces are designed with capitals only, no lower case. Two such beautiful faces are Hadriano and Forum. No problem, as long as you realize there is no companion lower case. If you are designing a certificate or diploma, either Forum or Hadriano is an ideal face incorporating the needed character. (The figures, incidentally, are old-style, as they should be, in keeping with the Roman forebears of the faces.) Since certificates traditionally are rather formal and deliberately old-fashioned, the lack of lowercase letters doesn't create a problem. Hadriano is a cutting by Goudy that comes in caps only.  < previous page page_59 next page >
