Its been quite a year for MyFonts. Weve introduced the new, responsive, visual homepage. They've rewritten the More Fonts Like This feature using artificial intelligence techniques; They've built in new ways of favoriting fonts and designers. They released FontScout for iPad. They've improved our quality control, carefully selecting and coaching new type foundries. The year has also been quite remarkable for new fonts. Here is MyFonts yearly overview of most popular releases. As usual they have waited until the very last moment to put the finishing touches to this list, giving the faces released during the last months of the year a fair chance to make the cut. Unlike most other Best-of-the-Year lists, this one is based on sales. Not simply the total sales volume across the year, as that would give the oldest font families an unfair advantage. They've looked at average sales over the year and during the successful introduction period; we made sure popular genres are fairly represented; they included no more than one font family from each foundry. There you go: a type hit parade like no other.
