@fde101 when making books you work with styles, is true.
Not just with books, but with just about any kind of formatted content - newsletters, newspapers, etc.
But when working with illustrated books, covers, children activity books, etc,
Covers are a different sort of beast, and are more of an illustration project than a publishing project. Agreed that the regular use of styles for a cover is not as relevant as for the body of a publication.
On the other hand, I am less inclined to agree that styles lose relevance when making "illustrated books" or "children's activity books" - there is ultimately still a level at which consistency throughout such books is perfectly relevant when creating a cohesive product and while such books are likely to contain a larger number of illustrative works (which individually might fall outside the normal use of styles) there are still elements that tie these things together for which the primary use of styles is still a good idea.
font choosing is important.
That is true for any kind of project in which text is involved if that project is going to be distributed.
Need of design are wide and people works their way. The standardized professional way of work offenly is bypassed by creative people.
True, and sometimes that is completely appropriate, other times it is bypassed to the detriment of the outcome or to the time taken to achieve it. Different projects and different situations call for different ways of working and different sets of tools. As I said in my other post:
again, that is for a desktop publishing app; for a tool such as VectorStyler, it makes enough sense to offer it separately if people find such a thing useful
