TypeBrewer is an online map design help tool that gives mapmakers a chance to explore typography in a semi-structured environment. An interactive template approach is used for previewing over 300 unique combinations of typeface, size, density and tracking on the map. Printable specs and downloadable templates allow users to take chosen combinations away for use in working map projects intended for either screen or print media. Additional features allow preview with label highlighting, map terrain, or text only. Special components such as My Fonts or Font Checker show users the fonts on their computers and check whether they might be in a TypeBrewer template. Several Learn More opportunities describe template fonts and explain terminology in a cartographic context.
