This post is a bit over due, but I promised the gathered throng at the San Antonio Bar Association to upload my PowerPoint presentation.
So enjoy "Don't Be Ugly" about how to make your brief more persuasive through good typography and document design.
Of course, the most important thing is not the presentation itself, but the resources behind the presentation. Those resources are:
- "Typography For Lawyers"by Matthew Butterick
- "Painting With Print" by Ruth Anne Robbins
- And the Seventh Circuit's "Requirements And Suggestions For Typography In Briefs And Other Papers" (catchy title, that)
Enjoy.
