Which fonts go well together?

Fonts are an important part of document formatting. They are important for readability, but also for appearance. For example, some fonts are formal, while others are playful. Some fonts are very modern, while others have a more classic look. As such, fonts can for example be used by companies to transfer an image of the type of brand they are.

Font combination

In addition to choosing a font, there is also the matter of combining fonts. For example, you may have text that needs to stand out more, such as titles. You can then give this text a different font than the rest of the text. There are thousands of fonts available online, but they don't all go well together. For example, fonts that are very similar are often not a good combination, but neither are fonts that have no similarities. Fortunately, there are several resources online to help you find the right combination of fonts!
