Lately I have been very interested in how far we can take
Typography only using CSS. Sure you can use images or sIFR to produce some very beautiful typography, but there is something unique and special about using only
CSS. It is incredibly useful too, if you know the extent you can take CSS you end up with much more flexible websites— especially ones driven by a CMS.
Typography is elegant when it is attractive and communicates the designer’s ideas. When chosen wisely and used carefully, it can be very effective in supporting the overall
design. Designers are always exploring different techniques with type: some use images or sIFR to produce very beautiful typography, while others prefer CSS alone to get the typography just right.
The main advantage of elegant CSS typography lies in its ability to be both attractive and improves the user experience.

Some of the examples mimic the typography of print, while others actually leverage web technology, smart CSS and delicious HTML to make their pages not only aesthetically pleasing, but legible, user-friendly and easily navigable.
