A Basic Course in Font Wrangling Session 23 – Saturday, September 12, 2009 A Basic Course in Font Wrangling Session 23 – Saturday, September 12, 2009 Erich S. Lehman Premedia Facilities Coordinator School of Print Media Rochester Institute of Technology Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 1 Everything you wanted to know . How to recognize fonts and font types Where fonts live in Mac OS X How OS X recognizes fonts How to handle OS X based font solutions, aka “resources you didn’t even know you had” Third-party font managers Font Licensing and Font Troubleshooting Handy resources for font issues. Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 2 All about the fonts . Fonts and the OS that loves them. Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 3 Let’s start with the basics. Types of fonts and how to identify them in OS X Unicode Where fonts live in OS X Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 4 Types of Fonts Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 5 Font Types: PostScript Also known as Type 1 or Type 3 Two parts required (third is optional*) Printer font (LWFN) Screen font - (FFIL) AFM (Adobe Font Metrics) file* – not always present. Work great with RIPs Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 6 Font Types: TrueType Apple and Microsoft collaboration All data in one file Added “hinting” Have many extra features that aren’t utilized Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 7 Font Types: Multiple Master A flavor of PS fonts; contains multiple character outlines Can be interpolated to create variations (think Gutenberg) Can vary sizes, weight, serifs, stance, etc. Causes problems – lots of problems Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 8 Font Types: dfont Datafork TrueType font Apple proprietary All font suitcases can be stored in data fork Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 9 Font Types: OpenType Hybrid font from Adobe and Microsoft True cross-platform One file for all info, best of both PostScript and Truetype worlds Can contain over 65,000 characters and multiple languages in one file Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 10 Font Types: ClearType Microsoft proprietary format Subpixel Rendering technology; focused on LCD screen display Technological benefits do not carry over to print output Effects only seen in Microsoft operating systems Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 11 Font Types: CID fonts Fonts whose glyphs have no names, just numbers. They are described in relation to other characters and glyphs in a character collection Typically for Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc. Need at least two files to be complete: CMap (character map) CIDFont Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 12 Font Type Identification Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 13 ASCII vs. Unicode ASCII was the original standard, but Unicode trumps it ASCII is limited; Unicode extended characters into the millions Most Unicode fonts are “double-byte fonts” Most modern OS’s fully supports Unicode Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 14 Font Encoding Issues Why older Mac & PC fonts don’t play well together: With ASCII, first 128 characters were standard Second 128 (high-bit) are different on Mac and PC, hence, character substitution often occurs These encodings are called MacRoman and Win ANSI Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 15 Where Fonts Live Presentation © 2009 Erich S. Lehman. 16 With OS X, things got crazy. There can be up to 8 different places where fonts live OS X is a multi-user environment Allows high degree of customization, but also frustration Presentation © 2009 Erich S.

The limited battery power supply in the portable devices often prevents these systems to use high-power large liquid crystal display (LCD). Instead, the portable devices often have a LCD screen with small physical size (e.g. 3cm× 2cmforSmartphoneorDSLR)andwithmuch lower pixel resolution (e.g. 0.15 mega-pixel for 480 × 320 display) than actual image/video resolution. Thus, the high-resolution image and video are down-sampled before being displayed. Unfortunately, the anti-aliasing filter often leads to rather severe blurring. Although the blurring may be minor when the viewing distance is large, it can be rather disturbing in portable appli- cations due to the short viewing distance. To cope with the blurring problem, one possible solution is to use an LCD screen with higher resolution. But such hardware solution tends to be expensive and often not welcomed by the consumer electronic compa- nies.Anotherpossiblesolutionistocontinuetousethelow-resolutionLCDscreen,butusesomesoftwaretechniquetoenhance the apparent image/video resolution.

  • Submit Login Macos Mojave Removes Subpixel Anti-Aliasing, Making
    Hacker News new | comments | show | ask | jobs | submit login MacOS Mojave removes subpixel anti-aliasing, making non-retina displays blurry (reddit.com) 215 points by laurentdc 6 hours ago | hide | past | web | favorite | 188 comments add comment ridiculous_fish 2 hours ago [-] ex-MacOS SWE here. Subpixel antialiasing is obnoxious to implement. It requires threading physical pixel geometry up through multiple graphics layers, geometry which is screen-dependent (think multi-monitor). It multiplies your glyph caches: glyph * subpixel offset. It requires knowing your foreground and background colors at render time, which is an unnatural requirement when you want to do GPU-accelerated compositing. There's tons of ways to fall off of the subpixel antialiased quality path, and there's weird graphical artifacts when switching from static to animated text, or the other way. What a pain! Nevertheless there's no denying that subpixel-AA text looks better on 1x displays. Everyone notices when it's not working, and macOS will look worse without it (on 1x displays). reply omarforgotpwd 0 minutes ago [-] "Listen guys the code for this is a mess. Can you just buy the new Macbook?" (love my latest gen Macbook Pro, but this is the classic problem with Apple's approach to product design) reply captainmuon 1 hour ago [-] Personally, I think that is moving in the wrong direction. This is the reason text looks bad on transformed HTML elements in browsers, or when you click a button on Windows and it tilts slightly. Text rendering should be aware of the (sub)pixels, even post-transform. While we're at it, this can apply to vector art, too.

  • Higher Quality 2D Text Rendering
    Journal of Computer Graphics Techniques Vol. 2, No. 1, 2013 Higher Quality 2D Text Rendering http://jcgt.org Higher Quality 2D Text Rendering Nicolas P. Rougier INRIA No hinting Native hinting Auto hinting Vertical hinting Figure 1. When displaying text on low-resolution devices (DPI < 150), one typically has to decide if one wants to respect the pixel grid (e.g., Cleartype technology / Microsoft / native hinting) for crisp rendering or, to privilege glyph shapes (Quartz technology / Apple / no hinting) at the cost of blurring. There is, however, a third way that may combine the best of the two technologies (vertical hinting). Abstract Even though text is pervasive in most 3D applications, there is surprisingly no native sup- port for text rendering in OpenGL. To cope with this absence, Mark Kilgard introduced the use of texture fonts [Kilgard 1997]. This technique is well known and widely used and en- sures both good performances and a decent quality in most situations. However, the quality may degrade strongly in orthographic mode (screen space) due to pixelation effects at large sizes and to legibility problems at small sizes due to incorrect hinting and positioning of glyphs. In this paper, we consider font-texture rendering to develop methods to ensure the highest quality in orthographic mode. The method used allows for both the accurate render- ing and positioning of any glyph on the screen. While the method is compatible with complex shaping and/or layout (e.g., the Arabic alphabet), these specific cases are not studied in this article. 50 Journal of Computer Graphics Techniques Vol.

The The rendered text is designed to appeal to the human ClearType rendering method is designed to enhance viewer. The visibility of the color artifacts and contrast of rendered text by exploiting the subpixel resolution available the text will depend on the display characteristics, the on color displays. ClearType represents the high-resolution filtering method, and properties of the human visual system. font outline at the full subpixel resolution of the display and In this paper we combine device simulation and perceptual then filters the image to enhance contrast and reduce color metrics (S-CIELAB) to predict the visibility of unwanted artifacts. The filter choice influences text appearance, and artifacts in ClearType text. We test the idea that these people have clear preferences between the renderings with artifacts are at the heart of users’ preferences by comparing different filters. In this paper, we predict these preferences the artifact visibility with perceptual preference data. using S-CIELAB, a spatial extension to the perceptual color metric CIELAB. We calculate the S-CIELAB difference between designed and rendered fonts for various filters. We compare the size of these differences with preference data obtained from individual subjects.

  • Lecture 6: Output
    Lecture 6: Output Fall 2006 6.831 UI Design and Implementation 1 1 UI Hall of Fame or Shame? Fall 2006 6.831 UI Design and Implementation 2 This is Ghostview, a Unix program that displays Postscript files. Ghostview has no scrollbars; instead, it scrolls by direct manipulation of the page image – i.e., clicking and dragging on the page scrolls it around. But which way does it scroll? It turns out that dragging to the left moves the page image to the right – that is, it makes more of the page image come into view at the left side of the window. Does this make sense? It does, from a certain point of view -- if your mental model is a glass window that you’re dragging around on top of the page, then pressing on the glass and pushing it to the left should indeed make more of the page become visible on the left. But if your mental model of the window is as an empty frame, and you’re actually reaching through and pushing the page itself around, then pushing it to the left should make more of the page visible on the right. That’s the model used by Acrobat Reader, for example. So two different physical analogies are possible here. Principles of direct manipulation alone don’t help us decide. And Ghostview at least uses a consistent model –the light gray rectangle (underneath the Save Marked button) is a miniature representation of the position of the glass window over the page, and you push it around using the same dragging direction that you use on the page image itself.
