Created in 1990 by Tim Berners- Lee, the web quickly became the most used hypertext system in the world, and most browsers default to indicating hyperlinks with an underline. To answer the question of why the underline was chosen over competing demarcation techniques, the thesis applies the methods of history of technology and sociology of technology. Before the invention of the web, the underline–also known as the vinculum–was used in many contexts in writing systems; collecting entities together to form a whole and ascribing additional meaning to the content.

  • Type Design for Typewriters: Olivetti by María Ramos Silva
    Type design for typewriters: Olivetti by María Ramos Silva Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the MA in Typeface Design Department of Typography & Graphic Communication University of Reading, United Kingdom September 2015 The word utopia is the most convenient way to sell off what one has not the will, ability, or courage to do. A dream seems like a dream until one begin to work on it. Only then it becomes a goal, which is something infinitely bigger.1 -- Adriano Olivetti. 1 Original text: ‘Il termine utopia è la maniera più comoda per liquidare quello che non si ha voglia, capacità, o coraggio di fare. Un sogno sembra un sogno fino a quando non si comincia da qualche parte, solo allora diventa un proposito, cio è qualcosa di infinitamente più grande.’ Source: fondazioneadrianolivetti.it. -- Abstract The history of the typewriter has been covered by writers and researchers. However, the interest shown in the origin of the machine has not revealed a further interest in one of the true reasons of its existence, the printed letters. The following pages try to bring some light on this part of the history of type design, typewriter typefaces. The research focused on a particular company, Olivetti, one of the most important typewriter manufacturers. The first two sections describe the context for the main topic. These introductory pages explain briefly the history of the typewriter and highlight the particular facts that led Olivetti on its way to success. The next section, ‘Typewriters and text composition’, creates a link between the historical background and the machine.

  • 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.

  • American Indian Languages (Abbreviated A), and the Alphabet of the Dialect Atlas of New England (Abbreviated D)
    CONCORDANCE OF PHONETIC ALPHABETS Robert C. Hollow, Jr. University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill A concordance of 3 major phonetic alphabets used in North America is presented and discussed. Those alphabets consid- ered are one used by the International Phonetic Association, one used for American dialectology and one used for American Indian languages. Comparisons are made in terms of vowel symbols, -consonant symbols, secondary segmental- symbols, and diacritic marks. Typewriter equivalents of standard symbols are also given. [phonetics, linguistics, North A.merica, American Indians, phonetic symbols] This paper is a brief concordance of the major phonetic alphabets currently in use by linguists and anthropologists in North America. The alphabets included are the International Phonetic Alphabet (abbreviated I in this paper), the Americanist alphabet used in the transcription of American Indian Languages (abbreviated A), and the alphabet of the Dialect Atlas of New England (abbreviated D). For convenience I have divided the concordance into five sections: 1) Primary Vowel Symbols, 2) Primary Consonant Symbols, 3) Secondary Segmental Symbols, 4) Diacritic Marks, and 5) Typewriter Symbols. The form of I used in this paper is the 1951 revision as fully presented in The Principles of the International Phonetic Association (International Phonetic Association 1957). D is presented and discussed in the Handbook of the Linguistic Geography of New England (Kurath, Bloch and Hansen 1939). This alphabet is based onI, but includes certain modifications made to facilitate the transcription of American English dialect material. There is no single phonetic alphabet currently in use by students of American Indian Languages, for this reason I have consulted several alternate formu- lations of phonetic alphabets given by scholars in the field, most notably 42 Bloch and Trager (1942), Pike (1947), Trager (1958), and Shipley (1965).

  • Manuscript—A Package Emulating Typewriter “Typesetting”
    Manuscript|A Package Emulating Typewriter \Typesetting" MatˇejCepl, matej at ceplovi dot cz This document describes package manuscript version 1.7, from 2015/01/19 1 Purpose Purpose of this package is to emulate appearance of the document written on classical typewriter as much as possible. So far, whenever backward requirement of some institutions (especially universities) to provide paper or thesis in the layout developed in times before personal computers emerges on any TEX-related public forum, it is met with strong (and sometimes even angry) resistance and many advise how to overcome resistance of the institution. I totally agree with the basic premise of this attempt (of course, TEX was created for making \masterpieces of typography" not to emulate typewriters). Having said that, this package goes exactly in the opposite direction than these people advise. Instead of trying to avoid typewriter-driven layout, it tries to emulate it as much as possible. Of course, the most important motivation for such package is challenge and curiosity how far I can get using just TEX tools in this endeavor. However, there are also some real reasons why this package might be useful. First of all there are situations when the directives of backward layout are non-negotiable (e. g., in commercial setting or with too stiff univer- sity). Moreover, my conciliatory character leads me more to honor other cultures (and although very short-lived and feeble, there was a typographical culture of typewriters) rather then rejecting them. Actually, during work on this package my appreciation of strict puritanical simplicity of typewriters just grew (and of course, it is obvious that in some aspects typesetting documents with this package would create documents of the quality never possible with a real typewriter|just TEX's optimal line breaking with few divided words makes a lot of difference).
