most well-known typesetting applications (all WYSIWYG) encourage bad practices ◮ do not separate composition of text from its typesetting/styling ◮ the author is distracted from composing content, in favor of making typographical choices all the time (sizes, font styles, indents, page breaks, etc., etc.) ◮ idea of markup (logical or direct) is nonexistent ◮ documents often have no underlying logical structure ◮ encourages primitive formatting practices ◮ workflow is severely hindered & error-prone (especially for complex publications): e.g., changing one overall style for a logical function, or defining different styles for one given logical element gkz & szp (delg) pc, onscreen, web typo 22 / 88 computerization aims today’s publishing process: aims ◮ keep composition of content

Well, according to the British journalist, Stephen Masty, we are still witnessing new inventions in musical instruments that link us back to the Renaissance figuratively and literally.

  • “Real” Page Numbers to a Reflowable Kindle Textbook
    How to Use Adobe InDesign CC to Add “Real” Page Numbers to a Reflowable Kindle Textbook with an Index, so that Index Entries Correspond to Print Edition Page Numbers, and Link to the Specific Text relevant to the Given Entry Topic Why do textbook authors/publishers require “real page numbers”? So readers can know what page they are on, so scholars can cite the page in academic papers, and students be sure they are reading the class assignments. Note that since a “page” in a book translates into multiple “locations” in a reflowable eBook like the E-ink Kindles, the page numbers in an index topic entry are not actually linked to the page number (whether visible or invisible) in the eBook. They are linked to the topic material - the index marker embedded by InDesign at a specific word. The fact that this link may go to a position in the text that is a few “locations” from the actual page number is not a bug, it’s a feature. Links go to “relevant paragraphs,” not page numbers, as Amazon requires. Kindle Digital Publishing Guidelines strongly recommend that the publisher remove some page numbers from reflowable E-ink Kindles, specifically those in the Table of Contents. This is because the typical mobi eBook does not have page numbers. When they do have page numbers, Amazon should support them in the ToC, as they do in the Index. Unfortunately, communication with KDP support is poor. KDP’s own conversion process now removes page numbers from the Table of Contents even though the publisher leaves them in and requests the Kindle Real Page Numbers feature, which supports the Go to Page feature and “page-flips” with page numbers.

One of the casualties of this change was the recital recording, in which an artist or ensemble would present an interesting arrangement of musical pieces that followed a certain theme or style—much like a live concert. Although recital recordings were of course made, and are perhaps making a comeback, most recordings featured a single composer and were sold in alphabetized bins: B for Bach; V for Vivaldi.

LAROY Kathy - CVO VSPW - Graduaat BDI - Architectuurbibliotheken Gent LAROY Kathy - CVO VSPW - Graduaat BDI - Architectuurbibliotheken Gent WOORD VOORAF Ik ben mijn faculteitsbibliothecaris Bart Vancoppenolle, diensthoofd prof. dr. Tom Verguts, voormalig decaan prof. dr. Geert De Soete en huidig decaan prof. dr. Ann Buysse zeer erkentelijk. Zij hebben mij namelijk de kans en ruimte geboden om deze studie te combineren met mijn job als bibliotheekmedewerker in de Faculteitsbibliotheek Psychologie en Pedagogische Wetenschappen, UGent. Ook mijn collega’s Kristof De Bruyne, Annemie De Vuyst en Franky Maes verdienen hiervoor een woord van dank. Ik heb zeer veel gehad aan de kruisbestuiving tussen mijn praktijkervaringen op de werkvloer en de theoretische onderbouw die de gedoceerde vakken mij boden. Ik grijp deze gelegenheid dan ook graag aan om alle docenten van CVO VSPW hartelijk te bedanken voor de geboden kennis en inzichten. Ook de praktijkervaringen tijdens mijn stages voor de modules Beroepspraktijk A, B, C en D bleken zeer leerzaam. Voor de module Beroepspraktijk A in het eerste studiejaar van de opleiding liep ik stage in de Openbare Bibliotheek Deinze. Dit werd een zeer gevarieerde en leerrijke ervaring. Ik werd er enthousiast opgevangen en voortreffelijk begeleid door de bibliothecaris-diensthoofd mevr. Trui Galle, de adjunct- bibliothecarissen en de overige medewerkers. Ik wens hen allen dan ook heel erg te bedanken. Voor de modules Beroepspraktijk B, C en D en Projectwerk 1 en 2 in het tweede en derde studiejaar mocht ik stage doen in de Faculteitsbibliotheek Ingenieurswetenschappen en Architectuur, UGent.

  • Web Typography Characteristics O Type Is Displayed at Between 72 and 110 Dpi, Much Lower Than in Print
    GD 321A :: Week 07 1 of 7 25 February 2004 Web Typography Characteristics o Type is displayed at between 72 and 110 dpi, much lower than in print. o Pages are rendered on the fly, and presentation varies depending on a number of factors: Operating system (Mac, Windows, Linux) Web browser maker (Netscape, Mozilla, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera) Web browser version (3.0, 4.0, 5.5, 6.0, etc.) User preferences (adjustments to the default typeface, size, colors, etc.) Fonts installed on the end-user’s system o Consider your typography as mere suggestions rather than strict requirements. o Browser Samples: Note the differences in the amount of content displayed and in the size of the fonts between the two operating systems. Internet Explorer 5.2 on Mac OS X 10.2 Internet Explorer 5.5 on Windows 95 Why is type on the web so bad? o Initial goal of the web was to share physics documents with researchers around the world. Academics focused on the structural logic and portability of the information, not the visual presentation. o Early HTML documents used container tags (<h1>, <h2>, <p>, etc.) to create a visual hierarchy, not to precisely control the appearance of a page. o Older browsers emphasized the ability to customize font settings—it was considered a feature at the time.
