  • Letter Types
    LETTER TYPES Do you need to write a letter for business, professional, or employment purposes ? The content and format of the letter you write will depend on the. Congratulatory letter, condolence letter, invitation letter etc are all social letters. Only a symbol with a unique function is considered a character and is thus assigned a code point in Unicode. Official letters are also formal in nature and follow certain structure and decorum. In Greek handwriting, it was common to join the left leg and horizontal stroke into a single loop, as demonstrated by the uncial version shown. The shapes of the letters recall the handpainted strokes made by traditional sign painters and lettering artists. Two or three paragraphs are plenty. Let us have a look at the few types of letters. There was also a cursive style used for everyday or utilitarian writing, which was done on more perishable surfaces. Source: npr Types of Letters Let us first understand that there are broadly two types of letter, namely Formal Letters, and Informal Letters. Especially in formal letters, it is important to immediately make clear the purpose of the letter. Monospaced typefaces function better for some purposes because their glyphs line up in neat, regular columns. One could be asking for time, money, services, or products; the fact is that, when you ask for someone's help, you are subliminally potentially putting yourself lower than the other person. Small capitals and non-lining numerals once found only in serif fonts are included in the sans-serif versions of Thesis, Scala Pro, and many other contemporary superfamilies.

  • Typography Basics
    Some basics of Typography Introduction Reading the stories posted on Chakatheaven and Furaffinity, I’ve repeatedly come across well- written ones where the presentation is a bit of a deterrence. Those gems include writing the body of the text in 16pt, a long text completely italicized and centring with tabs. Headings also are a bit of a sore spot. In the case of plain text there is not a lot of formatting options but with more advanced formats, those options exist. As a consequence I’ve decided to write this mini-manual in order to improve the general readability of texts, followed by an overview on the software available to produce readable texts. I claim neither perfection nor completeness for this overview, but am reasonably certain to get at least the basics right. Of course with a good reason, deviation from those guidelines is entirely acceptable. Formatting Text Alignment Fundamentally, there are four different alignments: Justified (most of this document), flush left, centred and flush right. For longer texts in languages written from left to right, flush left or justified are the only really worthwhile options. The difference between justified and flush left is the treatment of the text on the right side: Flush left keeps distances within the text (space widths, distance between letters) constant and produces a ragged right edge while justification varies those (and, if activated, hy- phenates words) to keep both sides aligned. Font/Typeface Traditionally, a typeface is what’s today usually also referred to as a font: A family of different but related fonts, usually bundled together.
