Make plans to attend the third annual typography conference of the Society of Typographic Aficionados (SoTA). This year's conference will be held at the Four Points Sheraton in downtown Rochester, New York, from July 13-15, 2001. TypeCon has a history of international attendance, and, with confirmed participants like Ed Benguiat, Matthew Carter and Chank Diesel, this year's event will be bigger and better than before.
