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.

  • Supreme Court of the State of New York Appellate Division: Second Judicial Department
    Supreme Court of the State of New York Appellate Division: Second Judicial Department A GLOSSARY OF TERMS FOR FORMATTING COMPUTER-GENERATED BRIEFS, WITH EXAMPLES The rules concerning the formatting of briefs are contained in CPLR 5529 and in § 1250.8 of the Practice Rules of the Appellate Division. Those rules cover technical matters and therefore use certain technical terms which may be unfamiliar to attorneys and litigants. The following glossary is offered as an aid to the understanding of the rules. Typeface: A typeface is a complete set of characters of a particular and consistent design for the composition of text, and is also called a font. Typefaces often come in sets which usually include a bold and an italic version in addition to the basic design. Proportionally Spaced Typeface: Proportionally spaced type is designed so that the amount of horizontal space each letter occupies on a line of text is proportional to the design of each letter, the letter i, for example, being narrower than the letter w. More text of the same type size fits on a horizontal line of proportionally spaced type than a horizontal line of the same length of monospaced type. This sentence is set in Times New Roman, which is a proportionally spaced typeface. Monospaced Typeface: In a monospaced typeface, each letter occupies the same amount of space on a horizontal line of text. This sentence is set in Courier, which is a monospaced typeface. Point Size: A point is a unit of measurement used by printers equal to approximately 1/72 of an inch.

  • 15 the Effect of Font Type on Screen Readability by People with Dyslexia
    The Effect of Font Type on Screen Readability by People with Dyslexia LUZ RELLO and RICARDO BAEZA-YATES, Web Research Group, DTIC, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain Around 10% of the people have dyslexia, a neurological disability that impairs a person’s ability to read and write. There is evidence that the presentation of the text has a significant effect on a text’s accessibility for people with dyslexia. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are no experiments that objectively 15 measure the impact of the typeface (font) on screen reading performance. In this article, we present the first experiment that uses eye-tracking to measure the effect of typeface on reading speed. Using a mixed between-within subject design, 97 subjects (48 with dyslexia) read 12 texts with 12 different fonts. Font types have an impact on readability for people with and without dyslexia. For the tested fonts, sans serif , monospaced, and roman font styles significantly improved the reading performance over serif , proportional, and italic fonts. On the basis of our results, we recommend a set of more accessible fonts for people with and without dyslexia. Categories and Subject Descriptors: H.5.2 [Information Interfaces and Presentation]: User Interfaces— Screen design, style guides; K.4.2 [Computers and Society]: Social Issues—Assistive technologies for per- sons with disabilities General Terms: Design, Experimentation, Human Factors Additional Key Words and Phrases: Dyslexia, learning disability, best practices, web accessibility, typeface, font, readability, legibility, eye-tracking ACM Reference Format: Luz Rello and Ricardo Baeza-Yates. 2016.

  • Bluebook Citation in Scholarly Legal Writing
    BLUEBOOK CITATION IN SCHOLARLY LEGAL WRITING © 2016 The Writing Center at GULC. All Rights Reserved. The writing assignments you receive in 1L Legal Research and Writing or Legal Practice are primarily practice-based documents such as memoranda and briefs, so your experience using the Bluebook as a first year student has likely been limited to the practitioner style of legal writing. When writing scholarly papers and for your law journal, however, you will need to use the Bluebook’s typeface conventions for law review articles. Although answers to all your citation questions can be found in the Bluebook itself, there are some key, but subtle differences between practitioner writing and scholarly writing you should be careful not to overlook. Your first encounter with law review-style citations will probably be the journal Write-On competition at the end of your first year. This guide may help you in the transition from providing Bluebook citations in court documents to doing the same for law review articles, with a focus on the sources that you are likely to encounter in the Write-On competition. 1. Typeface (Rule 2) Most law reviews use the same typeface style, which includes Ordinary Times New Roman, Italics, and SMALL CAPITALS. In court documents, use Ordinary Roman, Italics, and Underlining. Scholarly Writing In scholarly writing footnotes, use Ordinary Roman type for case names in full citations, including in citation sentences contained in footnotes. This typeface is also used in the main text of a document. Use Italics for the short form of case citations. Use Italics for article titles, introductory signals, procedural phrases in case names, and explanatory signals in citations.

  • Multimedia Foundations Glossary of Terms Chapter 8 – Text
    Multimedia Foundations Glossary of Terms Chapter 8 – Text Ascender Any part of a lowercase character that extends above the x-height, such as in the vertical stem of the letter b or h. Baseline And imaginary plane where the bottom edge of each character’s main body rests. Baseline Shift Refers to shifting the base of certain characters (up or down) to a new position. Capline An imaginary line denoting the tops of uppercase letters. Counter The enclosed or partially enclosed open area in letters such as O and G. Descender Any part of a character that extends below the baseline; such as in the bottom stroke of a y or p. Flush Left The alignment of text along a common left-edged line. Font Family A collection of related fonts – all of the bolds, italics, and so forth, in their various sizes. Gridline A matrix of evenly spaced vertical and horizontal lines that are superimposed overtop of the design window as a visual aid for aligning objects. Justification The term used when both the left and right edges of a paragraph are vertically aligned. Kerning A technique that selectively varies the amount of space between a single pair of letters and accounts for letter shape; allowing letters like A and V to extend into one another’s virtual blocks. Leading A term used to define the amount of space between vertically adjacent lines of text. Legibility Refers to a typeface’s characteristics and can change depending on font size. The more legible a typeface, the easier it is at a glance to distinguish and identify letters, numbers, and symbols.

  • Uniform Rendering of XML Encoded Mathematical Content with Opentype Fonts
    i \eutypon24-25" | 2011/1/21 | 8:58 | page 11 | #15 i i i Εὔτυπon, τεῦχος 24-25 — >Okt¸brioc/October 2010 11 Uniform Rendering of XML Encoded Mathematical Content with OpenType Fonts Apostolos Syropoulos 366, 28th October Str. GR-671 00 Xanthi Greece E-mail: asyropoulos at yahoo dot com The new OpenType MATH font table contains important information that can be used to correctly and uniformly render mathematical con- tent (e.g., mathematical formulae, equations, etc.). Until now, all sys- tems in order to render XML encoded mathematical content employed some standard algorithms together with some standard sets of TrueType and/or Type 1 fonts, which contained the necessary glyphs. Unfortu- nately, this approach does not produce uniform results because certain parameters (e.g., the thickness of the fraction line, the scale factor of superscripts/subscripts, etc.) are system-dependant, that is, their exact values will depend on the particular setup of a given system. Fortunately, the new OpenType MATH table can be used to remedy this situation. In particular, by extending renderers so as to be able to render mathemat- ical contents with user-specified fonts, the result will be uniform across systems and platforms. In other words, the proposed technology would allow mathematical content to be rendered the same way ordinary text is rendered across platforms and systems. 1 Introduction The OpenType font format is a new cross-platform font file format developed jointly by Adobe and Microsoft. OpenType fonts may contain glyphs with ei- ther cubic B´eziersplines (used in PostScript fonts) or with quadratic B´ezier splines (used in TrueType fonts).

For the human brain, sequences like -> , <= or := are single logical tokens, even if they take two or three characters on the screen. Your eye spends a non-zero amount of energy to scan, parse and join multiple characters into a single logical one. Ideally, all programming languages should be designed with full-fledged Unicode symbols for operators, but that’s not the case yet.
