David Woodward first set metal type at the age of 11 when he swapped his collection of Enid Blyton books for an Adana hand press. After graduating, he worked freelance as a journalist and book designer for Routledge and Macmillan, and set up the company Design for Print. He was an early adopter of information technology and has written previously on typefaces for non-academic readers. For around 20 years David has been a part-time sessional lecturer in the typography department at the University of Reading.

In 2012, one of her Life&Style layouts was nominated for a Society of Publication Designers award for Best Single Spread Design. After studying an MA in Book Design she started working for Pan Macmillan publishers in London where she now focuses on text design and complex typography.
Tony Seddon’s career as a graphic designer has taken him from his native Cornwall, via London and several publishing companies, to East Sussex where he now works as a freelance designer and writer. He has authored and co-authored multiple books, including Graphic Design for Non-designers; Thou Shall Not Use Comic Sans: A Designer's Almanac of Dos and Don'ts; Draw Your Own Fonts, 30 Alphabets to Scribble, Sketch and make Your Own; Greetings from Retro Design, Vintage Graphics Decade by Decade; Type Teams, Perfect Typeface Combinations and Why They Work; and The Evolution of Type, A Graphic Guide to 100 Landmark Typefaces.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
