I recommend reading Stop Stealing Sheep & Find Out How Type Works. It is an excellent and approachable place to breach the subject.

also: stop stealing sheep and start learning about type

I would recommend you make a lot of mistakes at first, especially if you have time on your hands. Don't try to make the perfect font along the canons of good typography or you will never start :)

Then there are the issues of type technology (adobe type 1, truetype, opentype font code, character encodings etc…)

Start with something basic and you shouldn't have too many problems.

https://www.amazon.com/Stop-Stealing-Sheep-Find-Works/dp/0672485435/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8 (you might find it for free somewhere as i did, but in my case it was in russian language)

bro just read this book, it will improve your typography a lot, mark my words.

Typography for Lawyers fits the bill. It is written for non-designers using standard office software, and teaches you how to set type well using the tools you have. (The site used to have the full content, but it looks like he's published it as a book and is now using the site to sell the book.)

I'm also a huge fan of Speikerman's book Stop Stealing Sheep. It is a great introduction to the ideas behind good typography, an easy read, and very well suited for the beginner.

Good luck!
