Abgesehen von der Schriftart würde ich das Logo ändern.

Questions & Answers about Abgesehen von der Schriftart würde ich das Logo ändern.

Why is it der Schriftart instead of die Schriftart?
The phrase abgesehen von always takes the dative case because of the preposition von. Since Schriftart is a feminine noun (die Schriftart), its article changes to der in the dative case.
Why does the verb würde come before the subject ich?
The entire phrase Abgesehen von der Schriftart acts as a single block occupying the first position in the sentence. Because German strictly places the conjugated verb in the second position, würde must come next, pushing the subject (ich) into the third position.
Does abgesehen von always mean "except for" (excluding something)?
Not always! Depending on the context, abgesehen von can mean "except for" (exclusive) or "in addition to" (inclusive). In this sentence, it is used exclusively: the speaker wants to change the logo, but they want to keep the current font.
How is the word Schriftart formed?
It is a compound noun made up of die Schrift (writing, script) and die Art (type, kind). Put together, it literally means "type of writing," which is the standard German word for a font or typeface.
