  • 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.

  • 2.1 Typography
    Working With Type FUN ROB MELTON BENSON POLYTECHNIC HIGH SCHOOL WITH PORTLAND, OREGON TYPE Points and picas If you are trying to measure something very short or very thin, then inches are not precise enough. Originally English printers devised picas to precisely measure the width of type and points to precise- ly measure the height of type. Now those terms are used interchangeably. There are 12 points in one pica, 6 picas in one inch — or 72 points in one inch. This is a 1-point line (or rule). 72 of these would be one inch thick. This is a 12-point rule. It is 1 pica thick. Six of these would be one inch thick. POINTS PICAS INCHES Thickness of rules I Lengths of rules Lengths of stories I Sizes of type (headlines, text, IWidths of text, photos, cutlines, IDepths of photos and ads cutlines, etc.) gutters, etc. (though some publications use IAll measurements smaller than picas for photo depths) a pica. Type sizes Type is measured in points. Body type is 7–12 point type, while display type starts at 14 point and goes to 127 point type. Traditionally, standard point sizes are 14, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60 and 72. Using a personal computer, you can create headlines in one-point increments beginning at 4 point and going up to 650 point. Most page designers still begin with these standard sizes. The biggest headline you are likely to see is a 72 pt. head and it is generally reserved for big stories on broadsheet newspapers.

  • 15. Italic and Roman Type
    italic and roman type 15. Italic and roman type Italic type (slanted to the right) should be used sparingly . It is harder to read than roman type, both in print and on screen, and overuse reduces its utility as a means of emphasis or contrast . • Italics should be used for formally published material: books, journals, newspapers, magazines, databases, and working paper and policy paper series names (but the specific working paper or policy paper title should be in roman type and in quotation marks) . • Italics should also be used for foreign words or expressions (e .g . Länder), except in the case of proper nouns (e .g . Deutsche Bundesbank) . • Write Latin abbreviations in italics, except “cf .”, “e .g .”, “et al .”, “etc .”, “ibid .”, “i .e .”, “NB”, “vs .” . Use roman type for: • titles of documents and papers (which should also appear in double quotation marks) • titles of programmes, codes, laws, declarations (e g. Paris Declaration) and guidelines (which should also appear in title case) • quotation marks (even when the text is in italics) . notes ❯ Where the body of a text is in italics, items that normally would be italicised become roman . ❯ Use bold sparingly and never underline (except Internet addresses) .

  • From Scribes to Types Peter Van Der Weij.Indd
    FROM SCRIBES TO TYPES THE INSPIRATIONS AND INFLUENCES FOR THE FIRST MOVABLE TYPES Research by: PETER VAN DER WEIJ Tutored by: ALBERT CORBETO Course: MÁSTER DE TIPOGRAFÍA AVANZADA (EINA Center de Disseny i Art de Barcelona) ABSTRACT This research is about exploring the period before and after the invention of the printing press. The journey that the first scripts made to be turned into movable type. The research consists of investigating and mapping the scripts that were chosen. The thesis has an analyti- cal view on each journey. Historical background, æsthetical influences, models, characteristics and comparison are criteria that have been investigated for each of these scripts. This research shed light on the aspects of the transition from script to moveable type and proves that the cul- tural and historical context, aesthetically choices play as important role as technical reasons for movable type to come to life. Knowing that as a type designer will help me to first under- stand and second revitalize the unexplored ideas in old scripts and typefaces.

When I started my research about the transitional period from handwriting to printed books in Europe the focus was more on the technical challenges that the movable type makers ran into in order to create the first types.

    Movable Type, Movable Printers: Printers and Typography as Agents of Cultural Exchange in Fifteenth- Century Europe Jacob A. Gibbons S1433725 Book and Digital Media Studies MA Thesis Supervisor: Dr. Erik Kwakkel Second Reader: Prof. Paul Hoftijzer Date of completion: 28 July, 2014 Word Count: 19.896 1 Table of Contents Chapter 1: Introduction 3 Chapter 2: Typographic Exchange within Cities 15 Chapter 3: Intra-regional Typographic Exchange 25 Chapter 4: Trans-European Typographic Exchange 36 Chapter 5: Conclusions and Looking Forward 46 Works Cited 52 2 Chapter 1: Introduction From its birth in Mainz in the 1450s, printing and the printers who implemented it spread rapidly through Europe, reaching Italy by 1465, Paris in 1470, the Low Countries by the early 1470s1, Poland by 1473, and by way of Flanders England in 14762. Printing was immediately a highly desirable technology, able to meet the fifteenth century’s growing demand for books of all kinds3 by mass-producing the codex form and all that could be included between its two covers. There already existed international markets in Europe for other goods that were traded abroad by merchants, but print functioned differently as a commodity. Whereas wool could be brought to the nearest port for export overseas and simply sold there, handed off to the merchant who would then travel to the next port and sell the product there, a printing press or a fount of type were not simply exchanged for a sum of a money in fifteenth-century Europe4. Printing entailed a crucial difference: its novelty required a very specific and very rare expertise, which meant that those who exported print from its home in Germany very often went with it to its new home in a new culture.
