  • Adobe Indesign Introduction to Digital Humanities
    Platform Study Adobe InDesign Introduction to Digital Humanities 2015 Matt Higgins Design is mind control. Introduction Modernist designers sought to find universal concepts within design. They wanted to know how visual elements affected human beings on a psychological level. This is why the works of Modernists such as Josef Müller-Brockmann, El Lissitzky, and Jan Tschichold, feature basic colors and shapes. They believed stripping design down to its most basic elements would remove any sentiment or bias that certain visuals could produce and allow for an objective study on how humans are affected by design. There have been countless movements like Modernism. They have invariably found their way into design. Many of those movements would reject the principles of Modernism and their universals. But it is plain to see, regardless of philosophy or ideology, that design affects human beings. If it did not, why would we continue designing? The nature of graphic design has always been to communicate. To affect people. Fresh Dialogue Sagmeister & Walsh This differentiates it from traditional fine arts. Certainly a We can think of design in terms of verbal conversation. What painting can communicate. The medium only matters in how it words are spoken is just as important as how the words are relates to the relaying of the message. But we tend to think of spoken. Then we take into account body language. From there fine art as a form of self expression. The artists is much more we can list a whole host of factors beyond the words spoken that involved in the work.

The overall treatment of curves is softer and fuller than in most industrial style sans serif faces. Terminal strokes are cut on the diagonal which helps to give the face a less mechanical appearance. Arial is an extremely versatile family of typefaces which can

  • Study on the Application of Chinese Fonts in the Computer Shen-Ao
    2017 4th International Conference on Social Science (ICSS 2017) ISBN: 978-1-60595-525-4 Study on the Application of Chinese Fonts in the Computer Shen-Ao LIU Wuhan, Hubei, China, Hubei University of Technology [email protected] Keywords: Computer, Font library, Printing fonts, Design application Abstract. A font library is a collection of fonts with different shapes but the same styles, sizes, and forms. It is made based on the number of Chinese characters and the standard of font shape in accordance with the regulations of our country, and there is no originality in choosing and arranging the contents and number of fonts. Therefore, a computer font library is not a compiled work, but a database, a frequently used computer font library. By the end of the 1980s, the computer font library has basically replaced the traditional type printing, accelerating the diversification of China's print fonts design. This paper discusses the design and creation of computer font libraries and the diversification of fonts design, and explores the application of computer fonts in the press and multimedia. Introduction By the end of 1980s, the type printing technology which has been used in China for nearly a hundred years has been replaced by laser typesetting, computer font library, and computer typesetting technology. China’s printing industry bade farewell to the era of lead and fire and ushered in a technological revolution featuring light and electricity. The computer font library of Chinese characters firstly entering in printing and typesetting was developed and used. The design of printing fonts through computer is convenient and fast, and has various art forms.

  • Creating a Newsletter
    Creating and publishing a newsletter David Neale Reading Neighbourhood Network What kind of newsletter? The main question is what kind of audience you are trying to reach... Online – generally sent out by email, with social media backup; easy to publish and share beyond your area so may be read more widely Print – accessible to your audience without internet access; needs a delivery network; often more likely to be read and retained Often the answer is that you need both types Publishing and sending an online newsletter Publishing an online newsletter Online newsletters are generally sent out by email, which usually has a higher hit rate than social media You can use social media to increase your reach, e.g. by tweeting your stories and sharing them on Facebook But: it is not advisable to just send out an email to your subscribers. Use a third party mailer instead, such as Mailchimp or Charityemail. Why use a third party mailer? A single email with too many recipients is more likely to be treated as spam and therefore less likely to be opened Recipients can subscribe and unsubscribe themselves Your newsletter will comply with anti-spam laws Just sending email doesn't give you any feedback. With a third party mailer you can collect statistics, see what topics are interesting and even see who is reading what! We recommend using Mailchimp, which is free for small- scale users What do I need to get started? The text for your news stories, with suitable snappy headlines Some nice colourful pictures – for online use we recommend using one size of about 800 x 600 pixels (use a picture editor, e.g.
