    Study Notes

    Typography Basics

    • A typeface is a set of fonts that share a common design, including letterforms, punctuation, and other characters.

    Typography Terminology

    • Kerning refers to the process of adjusting the space between characters in a typeface to create a visually appealing and harmonious arrangement of letters.
    • In typography, type size is measured in points (pt), with 1 point equal to 1/72 of an inch.

    Serif and Sans Serif Typefaces

    • Serif typefaces have small lines or flourishes at the ends of letters, which help guide the eye along lines of text.
    • Sans serif typefaces do not have these small lines or flourishes, making them cleaner and more minimalist in appearance.

    Monospaced Fonts

    • Monospaced fonts, also known as fixed-width fonts, are typefaces in which each character takes up an equal amount of horizontal space, making them useful for coding and other specialized applications.
