Reply To: I suck at everything typography and I need your help

[Alen]

everything from where do I get fonts to what fonts should I mix, where.

There is SO much more to typography than what typeface to use, mix, and etc…

Typography exists to honor content. Therefore you must read and understand the content before deciding what typeface to use.

I would start by ordering The Elements of Typographic Style, a book that every designer should own (IMO).

Also, start by Googling, there is just about gazillion of FREE resources online about typography.
