NORTHAMPTON, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Extensis®, a division of Celartem Inc., today announced that IT-Enquirer, recognized as one of the most important online information resources for cross media publishers, has selected the WebINK® web font service to present the highest-quality typography on its Web site.

“WebINK allows us to make another leap forward by delivering the latest in typography and Web design to our community.”

“To be ahead of the pack in digital publishing, it is essential to test and implement the newest, most innovative technologies available today,” said Erik Vlietinck of IT-Enquirer. “WebINK allows us to make another leap forward by delivering the latest in typography and Web design to our community.”

Until recently, Web designers for sites like IT-Enquirer not only had limited choices of fonts available, but multiple legal and technical challenges. Extensis’ recent debut of WebINK breaks down these barriers, with access to more than 2,000 high-quality Web fonts from the most respected type foundries across the globe.

With WebINK, Web designers select their typefaces, and integrate their selections directly in their site’s CSS using the @font–face tag. WebINK delivers the right font for the right browser. Web designers can improve Web site accessibility and enhance search engine optimization with WebINK, both keys to differentiation in today’s highly competitive online world. WebINK also unlocks the same potential in Web design as traditionally seen in print publishing through its vast font library.

We are honored IT-Enquirer has selected WebINK to deliver the best Web typography to their readers.”
