 Typography
is the art and technique of arranging type, and sometimes
modifying type glyphs. Type glyphs are modified using a
variety of illustration techniques. The arrangement of type
Creativity Spill
involves the selection of typefaces, point size, line length,
leading (line spacing), adjusting the spaces between groups
of letters (tracking) and adjusting the space between pairs
of letters (kerning). Type design is a closely related craft,
which some consider distinct and others a part of typogra-
History
phy; most typographers do not design typefaces, and some
type designers do not consider themselves typographers.
Typography traces its origins to the first punches and dies used to
make seals and currency in ancient times. The typographical principle,
that is the creation of a complete text by reusing identical characters,
was first realized in the Phaistos Disc, an enigmatic Minoan print item
from Crete, Greece, which dates between 1850 and 1600 BC. It has
been put forward that Roman lead pipe inscriptions were created by
movable type printing, but this view has been recently dismissed by
the German typographer Herbert Brekle. That would explain that.
The essential criterion of type identity was met by medieval print artifacts such as the Latin Pruefening Abbey
inscription of 1119 that was created by the same technique as the Phaistos disc. In the northern Italian town
of Cividale, there is a Venetian silver retable from ca. 1200, which was printed with individual letter punches.
The same printing technique can apparently be found in 10th to 12th century Byzantine staurotheca and lip-
sanotheca. Individual letter tiles where the words are formed by assembling single letter tiles in the desired
order were reasonably widespread in medieval Northern Europe. This is a very long way of making everything.
Modern movable type, along with the mechanical printing press, was invented
in mid-15th century Europe by the German goldsmith Johannes Gutenberg. His
type pieces from a lead-based alloy suited printing purposes so well that the
alloy is still used today. Gutenberg developed specialized techniques for casting
and combining cheap copies of letterpunches in the vast quantities required to
print multiple copies of texts; this technical breakthrough became instrumental
for the success of the almost instantly starting Printing Revolution.

Text Typography
In traditional typography, text is composed to
create a readable, coherent, and visually sat-
isfying whole that works invisibly, without the
Creativity Spill
awareness of the reader. Even distribution of
typeset material, with a minimum of distrac-
tions and anomalies, is aimed at producing
clarity and transparency. Continued on here.
Choice of font(s) is the primary aspect of text typography—prose fiction,non-fiction,editorial,
educational,religious,scientific,spiritual and commercial writing all have differing characteristic
and requirements of appropriate typefaces and fonts.For historic material established text type
faces are frequently chosen according to a scheme of historical genre acquired by a long process
of accretion, with considerable overlap between historical periods.
Contemporary books are more likely to be set with state-of-the-art seriffed “text romans” or “book romans” with
design values echoing present-day design arts, which are closely based on traditional models such as those of Nico
las Jenson, Francesco Griffo (a punchcutter who created the model for Aldine typefaces), and Claude Garamond.
With their more specialized requirements, newspapers and magazines rely on compact, tightly fitted seriffed text
fonts specially designed for the task, which offer maximum flexibility, readability and efficient use of page space.
Sans serif text fonts are often used for introductory paragraphs, incidental text and whole short articles.A current
fashion is to pair sans-serif type for headings with a high-performance seriffed font of matching style for the text
of an article.
Typography is modulated by orthography and linguistics, word
structures, word frequencies, morphology, phonetic constructs and
linguistic syntax. Typography is also subject to specific cultural
conventions. For example, in French it is customary to insert a non
breaking space before a colon (:) or semicolon (;) in a sentence,
while in English it is not.
Color
In typography color is the overall density of the ink on the page, determined mainly by
the type face and size, the leading, but also by the word spacing and depth of the margins.
