>But with new programs like Microsoft Word coming into existence, typography (e.g. formatting a document, setting the margins, making sure the lettering is appealing, etc.) became something everyone could do easily without much thinking. Correction: Most people do it without thinking. This does not mean the majority of the typography on the internet (and eventually printed) is good or well done. My LaTeX setup produces fairly good typography for math work, without too much thinking on my part, after setting up the packages, fonts, etc and learning LaTeX, which did took some time. (And ironically enough, writing LaTeX feels quite a bit like coding...) But first of all, deciding to use and learn LaTeX (or some other workable solution to produce good typography, it probably isn't the only one but the one I'm familiar with) requires you think about typography and realize that good typography is needed in the first place.
