ABOUT

Theodore E. Harrison

Canadian founder (with Yuri Yarmola) of FontLab, where he was President. MD (1975) and MBA from Wharton. At ATypI in Rome in 2002 he spoke about Fontlab 4, but more importantly, about a new font format, called Photofonts that allows complete typographic control of web pages yet retains all the benefits of standard HTML text. At ATypI 2004 in Prague, he spoke about EULAs, font licensing and FontLab. At ATypI 2009 in Mexico City, he spoke on EULA's, once again, and about Fontgrapher V, all fresh and revived. I got a chuckle from this quote of his at ATypI 2009 in Mexico City: Fonts are the Rodney Dangerfield of software. Speaker at ATypI 2011 in Reykjavik.
