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.

  • Sault Ste. Marie, 1853-1854 and After $21.50
    Sault Ste. Marie, 1853-1854 and After $21.50 TO BUILD A CANAL Sault Ste. Marie, 1853-1854 and After John N. Dickinson Nature has surrounded Lake Superior with immense and valuable forests, and has placed near its shores rich lodes of copper and, in the famed Mesabi Range, the world's largest and most accessible deposits of iron ore. But Na­ ture has also, by some quirk of geology and accident of geography, caused Lake Superior to have an elevation twenty-one feet higher than that of Lake Huron, into which it flows, and has connected the two by a river that, though sixty-three miles in over-all length, completes the drop in elevation in a stretch of precipitous rapids three-fourths of a mile long and a quarter of a mile wide, down which rushes 74,000 cubic feet of water per second as Superior races into Huron. The story of the construction of a bypass to this formidable natural barrier to the free passage of raw mate­ rials from the American Midwest to the great commercial centers of the eastern United States and beyond is the subject of this reveal­ ing and entertaining book. Traders who visited the area that the French had dubbed the Sault Ste. Marie had, as early as the eighteenth century, discerned the need to build a canal to circumvent the falls in the St. Mary's River, and one, of a sort, was indeed already in operation in the days of George Washington. A far more efficient waterway than this primitive expedient was clearly required, however, if the iron ore so abundant in Minnesota and Michigan was to join the coal and limestone of Ohio and Penn­ sylvania in the mills and furnaces surrounding the lower Great Lakes; and in 1853, after years of legislative haggling and political maneuver­ ing, construction of the St.

All of them are special to someone, but whatever picture comes to your mind and the fact that you are reading this booklet reinforces that this is a special place for you. As you read this historical writing, I just want to join you in thanking the dozens of people who made it possible. First the township board located a woman, Elizabeth Delene who had the gift for writing and arranging the many contributions that came her way. Elizabeth, thank you for making the time to put these facts in a very readable form! Next on the list of volunteers is Cathy Phelps from the township office. She went above and beyond the call of duty to solicit information and assist Elizabeth in putting together this manuscript. A local committee of Lula Sarka, Elry Reetz, Marilyn Heitman, and Ben Mukkala were ever ready to assist joined together to read the facts, and add comments and reach out for additional information to make this a factual, fascinating piece.
