    ELECTRONIC PUBLISHING, VOL. 5(2), 79±89 (JUNE 1992) Teaching digital typography1 JACQUES ANDRE ROGER D. HERSCH Didot Project Didot Project Irisa/Inria±Rennes, Campus de Beaulieu Laboratoire des SystÁemes PÂeriphÂeriques F-35042 Rennes cedex, France Ecole Polytechnique FÂedÂerale de Lausanne CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland SUMMARY Digital typography is a very specialized ®eld that offers two widely different yet complementary aspects:art and computer science.This paper presentsProject Didot, which is all aboutteaching digital typography. While taking into account recent experience, the authors explore some subjects that should be included in a digital typography course and describe the various trades it would be aimed at. This paper concentrates on the computer science aspect and gives a basic bibliography. KEY WORDS Digital typography Curriculum Tuition 1 PROJECT DIDOT In 1990, the EEC launched its Comett II project, with its main aims being to place greater emphasis on advanced technology training and to ensure that cooperation between univer- sities and the industrial world is carried out at a European level. Project Didot2 was set in motion in this context, with the help of seven other partners.3 The aim of this three-year project is mainly to draw up a European curriculum for teaching digital typography,4 to implement the required software tools and to try out this curriculum in a teaching environment [4]. Among the experimental workshops organized for this purpose [5] was a two-day seminar which took place in Reading (UK) in February 1991 [6] as well as a one-week seminar organized in Lausanne (Switzerland) in September 1991 [7,8].

Type & Typography Type is the lifeblood of books. While there is no reason that you can’t format your book without any knowledge of type, typography—the art, craft, and technique of composing and printing with type—lets you transform your manuscript into a professional looking book. As with writing, every book has its own issues that you have to discover as you design and format it. These pages cannot answer every question, but they can show you how to assess the problems and understand the tools you have to get things right. “Typography is what language looks like,” Ellen Lupton. Homage to Hermann Zapf 3 4 Type and Typography Type styles and Letter Spacing: The parts of a glyph have names, the most important distinctions are between serif/sans serif, and roman/italic. Normal letter spacing is subtly adjusted to avoid typographical problems, such as widows and rivers; open, touching, or expanded are most often used in display matter.

The publication was issued in the year 2015 Key words in English: Typography, Advertising, Visual Communication, Design, Typefaces, Fonts Key words in Czech: Typografie, Reklama, Vizuální Komunikace, Design, Písma, Fonty Full text of the Doctoral Thesis is available in the Library of TBU in Zlín ISBN 978-80-……… ABSTRACT This thesis is set to investigate the use of type and typography in advertising, the role of typography in rendering the advertising message and the effects it has on the same. Typography and advertising both have been researched significantly all over the world but mainly as a two separate disciplines without showing the importance of their connection. The aim of my thesis is to fill that gap and show the significance of typography in advertising and their relationship in the communication process. The approach undertaken in this thesis is mainly theoretical, including statistics, a survey, a case study and an analysis of literature from various sources in the field of the research. I have analysed the factors that make typography suitable and effective for advertising purposes. With this research I am able to confirm that the use of typography and type for advertising purposes is slightly different than its use for other purposes. I am hoping that my work will make designers and advertisers more aware of the importance of typography in the creation of advertisements and that they will make better use of it.

  • Typography and Readability
    Markus Itkonen Typography and readability There are many different typographic factors that affect the readability of printed text. Among them are choice of typeface, font size, line length, line spacing and column setting. Typography means the design and layout of a printed page and especially the setting and arranging of type on the page. It has a major impact on how inspired we are to read a text and how far into it our interest carries. Well-designed typography can also contain visual references to the contents and intended readership of the text. Although typography also creates images in a reader’s mind, its key purpose is to render the text into a pleasant, easy-to-read and even attractive form. Readability is affected by a great number of typographic factors. Probably the first of them to cross a layman’s mind is sufficient font size, which is important of course, but not very helpful if the other factors are not purposefully taken into account. Choice of typeface When we start to determine the final, publishable typography for a text, the first choice concerns the typeface. Common typefaces can be roughly divided into two main groups: Serif and Sans Serif. Serif a typeface in which the lines appear in two thicknesses, the ascenders are thin and the descenders thicker. Serif is also characterized by serifs, small, horizontal features at the end of strokes of letters. Sans Serif in turn does not comprise serifs and the lines are basically of the same thickness. antiikva groteski Serif typefaces have been used in printed matter since 1470, almost as long as printing technology has existed.
