Additionally the students’ union should no longer be referred to as ‘LUSU’, to be replaced by the full ‘Lancaster University Students’ Union’, or an iteration of this (such as ‘your students’ union’). The ‘LUSU’ logo will be phased out from Summer 2017, and all newly ordered print and materials should adopt the new logo mark and phrasing. v1.2 - Details correct as of 17th November 2017.

  • Vision Performance Institute
    Vision Performance Institute Technical Report Individual character legibility James E. Sheedy, OD, PhD Yu-Chi Tai, PhD John Hayes, PhD The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors that influence the legibility of individual characters. Previous work in our lab [2], including the first study in this sequence, has studied the relative legibility of fonts with different anti- aliasing techniques or other presentation medias, such as paper. These studies have tested the relative legibility of a set of characters configured with the tested conditions. However the relative legibility of individual characters within the character set has not been studied. While many factors seem to affect the legibility of a character (e.g., character typeface, character size, image contrast, character rendering, the type of presentation media, the amount of text presented, viewing distance, etc.), it is not clear what makes a character more legible when presenting in one way than in another. In addition, the importance of those different factors to the legibility of one character may not be held when the same set of factors was presented in another character. Some characters may be more legible in one typeface and others more legible in another typeface. What are the character features that affect legibility? For example, some characters have wider openings (e.g., the opening of “c” in Calibri is wider than the character “c” in Helvetica); some letter g’s have double bowls while some have single (e.g., “g” in Batang vs. “g” in Verdana); some have longer ascenders or descenders (e.g., “b” in Constantia vs.

  • Requirements and Suggestions for Typography in Briefs and Other
    REQUIREMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR TYPOGRAPHY IN BRIEFS AND OTHER PAPERS Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 32 contains detailed requirements for the production of briefs, motions, appendices, and other papers that will be presented to the judges. Rule 32 is designed not only to make documents more readable but also to ensure that different methods of reproduction (and different levels of technological sophistication among lawyers) do not affect the length of a brief. The following information may help you better under- stand Rule 32 and associated local rules. The Committee Note to Rule 32 pro- vides additional helpful information. This section of the handbook also includes some suggestions to help you make your submissions more legible—and thus more likely to be grasped and retained. In days gone past lawyers would send their work to printers, who knew the tricks of that trade. Now composition is in-house, done by people with no education in printing. Some of the printer’s toolkit is simple to use, however. Subsection 5, below, contains these hints. 1. Rule 32(a)(1)(B) requires text to be reproduced with “a clarity that equals or exceeds the output of a laser printer.” The resolution of a laser printer is expressed in dots per inch. First generation laser printers broke each inch into 300 dots vertically and horizontally, creating characters from this 90,000-dot matrix. Second generation laser printers use 600 or 1200 dots per inch in each direction and thus produce a sharper, more easily readable output; commercial typesetters use 2400 dots per inch. Any means of producing text that yields 300 dots per inch or more is ac- ceptable.

Eg Garamond - http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/itc/garamond Palatino - http://www.myfonts.com/search?search%5Btext%5D=palatino • Script fonts are based upon hand drawn calligraphic shapes Eg Palace Script - http://www.myfonts.com/search?search%5Btext%5D=palace+script • Transitional/Neo Grotesque fonts have highly contrasting wide and narrow strokes and an almost vertical axis. Eg Baskerville - http://www.myfonts.com/search?search%5Btext%5D=baskerville Century - http://www.myfonts.com/search?search%5Btext%5D=century • Modern fonts have contrasting thick and thin strokes. They have a vertical feel and thin serifs. Eg Bodoni - http://www.myfonts.com/search?search%5Btext%5D=bodoni • Slab Serif fonts have heavy and even stroke weights Eg Rockwell - http://www.myfonts.com/search?search%5Btext%5D=rockwell • Humanist fonts originated in the 15th Century and have different stroke thicknesses.

  • Typography Evolved from Handwriting, Which Is Created By
    PARTS OF THE LETTER Typography evolved from handwriting, which is created by making a series of marks by hand; therefore, the fundamen- tal element constructing a letterform is the linear stroke (stem). Each letter of our alphabet developed as a simple mark whose visual characteristics clearly sepa- rated it from all others. PARTS OF THE LETTER By learning the vocabulary designers and typographers can develop a greater understanding and sensitivity to the visual harmony and complexity of the alphabet. PARTS OF THE LETTER As with any craft that has evolved over 500 years, typography employs a number of technical terms. We will be learning these terms throughout the semester. The following describes specific parts of letterforms. Knowing the letterform component parts will make it much easier to identify specific typeface in the future. serif: the short strokes that finish off the major strokes of the letterform. bracket: a curving joint between the serif and the stroke bracket A baskerville bodoni rockwell Atransitional Amodern slab serif extreme thick and thins nearly mono-weight stroke width A baskerville bodoni rockwell Atransitional Amodern slab serif extreme thick and thins nearly mono-weight baseline: the imaginary line defining the visual base of the letterform. all letterforms sit on the baseline. baseline xAapdeCGgQk cap height: the height of the upper case in a font, taken from the base- line to the top of the character. cap height baseline xAapdeCGgQk x-height: the height lowercase x. if you compare typefaces of the same point size they may not have the same x-height. all of the lowercase x’s are the same point size.

The typeface grew popular very rapidly, finding usage in hundreds of American newspapers, as well as in high profile publications in Zapf’s native Germany. The harmonious forms of the design are reminiscent of the Renaissance and, combined with Zapf’s economical fit, make the typeface well-suited for anything rang- ing from headlines and advertisements to newspaper body text and instruction manuals.

These details are called serifs. One of the most commonly recognized serif fonts is Times New Roman. The four types of serif fonts are old style, transitional, modern and slab serif. Serif fonts are often recognized as easier to read than sans serif fonts; the term for the kind of font that does not have serifs. Therefore, serif fonts are considered somewhat better than sans serif fonts for body text. A common rule of thumb when selecting typography is to use a sans serif font for the header text and a serif font for the body text. evolution of serif type an introduction to old style serif type evolution of serif type Old style serif fonts are the oldest type of serif font. Old style serif fonts are charac- terized by only moderate transitions between the thinner and thicker parts of the stroke with a diagonal stress, meaning that the thinnest parts of strokes are on a diagonal.
