headlines and titles.

When pairing two fonts, it's important that the
fonts contrast in styles. Use a sans-serif with a
serif when you want to add variety to your text.
Using 2 similar fonts side-by—side can result in a
awkward look. Contrasting fonts work well in
presentations to add interest and variety.

When using fonts that evoke a specific time
period, do not mix fonts that are
representative of different eras. A victorian
font shouldn’t go with a futuristic font and
so forth. Time period fonts are usually
display fonts and should only be used for
larger type within presentations.
