Text is a key part of multimedia presentations, used in menus, navigation, and content.

Typeface is a group of characters (e.g., Verdana). Font is a specific size and style (e.g., Verdana 12-point bold).

Legibility depends on size, colors, style, and spacing between lines (leading).

Font styles include bold, italic, and underlined.

Font size is measured in points.

Measurements applied to individual letters.

Spacing between letter pairs.

Multimedia presentations often use text for instructions, navigation, and content.

A method of describing images using mathematical constructs, creating scalable and fast-rendering characters.

Developed by Apple and Microsoft, offers scalable outline fonts for drawing characters at various resolutions.

The current international standard, combining the best features of PostScript and TrueType.

A 7-bit coding system originally for English characters, later extended to 8-bit.

An 8-bit version of ASCII, allowing for more characters including symbols and special characters.

A 16-bit encoding standard supporting a wide range of languages and characters.

Collections of symbols representing various languages and character sets within Unicode.

A character set widely used in HTML programming, supporting Western European languages.

Uppercase refers to a capitalized letter (A, B, C), while lowercase refers to a small letter (a, b, c).

An intercap is an uppercase letter placed in the middle of a word (e.g., PowerPoint, GlaxoSmithKline).

A serif is a small decoration at the end of a letter stroke. Serif fonts are often used for body text.

Sans serif fonts lack the decorative serifs at the end of letter strokes. They're often used for headlines and bold statements.

Interactive buttons are text elements in multimedia presentations that users can click or tap on to trigger actions or navigate to other content.

Text fields in multimedia presentations are areas where users can input or read text.

Anti-aliasing is a technique used to smooth out the edges of text and make it look less jagged, improving readability.

Icons are visual symbols that represent objects or actions in multimedia presentations. They're like mini-pictures that convey information quickly and easily.

Menus in multimedia presentations help users navigate through the content. They are interactive lists with clickable options that lead to different parts of the presentation.

Reading text on a computer screen is generally considered less comfortable and slower than reading printed text.

Portrait orientation is taller than wide (like a book), whereas landscape orientation is wider than tall (like a typical computer screen).

HTML is a language used to create web pages. It uses tags to structure and format the content of websites.

DHTML is an enhanced version of HTML that includes interactive elements. It allows for more dynamic and engaging web page content.

HTML tags are special commands enclosed in angle brackets (< and >) that determine how content is displayed on web pages. They control text formatting, lists, images, and more.

An anchor is a reference that links one document to another document, image, sound, or file on the web.

The source node linked to the anchor is the link anchor, and the destination node linked to the anchor is the link end.

The simplest way to navigate hypermedia structures is using buttons. Location markers are important for user-friendly navigation.

Building (authoring) includes creating links, identifying nodes, and generating an index of words.

Hypertext systems are used for electronic publishing, reference works, technical documentation, educational courseware, interactive kiosks, and electronic catalogs.

Multimedia is the combination of text, graphics, and audio elements into a single presentation.

The process of converting fonts between different computer systems, ensuring readability across various platforms.

A software tool used to design, edit, and create high-quality fonts, offering professional control over typography.

A hypertext system enables users to navigate through text in a non-linear way.

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is the standard document format for web pages.

A specialized graphics editor designed for font creation and modification, compatible with both Macintosh and Windows operating systems.

The combination of text, graphics, audio, and video elements integrated into a single presentation.

Multimedia where the user controls the presentation, allowing for exploration and engagement.

A system of interconnected text, images, and other web elements, allowing navigation in a non-linear way.

A software environment that allows users to navigate through text in a non-linear way, following links between elements.

Interactive multimedia with a structured network of links, enabling user navigation and interaction with linked elements.
