Book Synopsis Computer Modern Typefaces by : Donald Ervin Knuth
Download or read book Computer Modern Typefaces written by Donald Ervin Knuth and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 1986 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Design of a Large Family of Fonts Now, 35 years after the first edition, the leading worldwide experts on these systems have spent several months inspecting every page thoroughly. We now believe that every "i" has been properly dotted, every "t" has been properly crossed, and every bug has been properly exterminated. This volume contains precise definitions of about 500 letters, numerals, and other symbols, all described with METAFONT, Donald E. Knuth's revolutionary language for the design of typefaces. Readers will learn how to make their own personal variations of the fonts, simply by changing a few parameters. Special symbols that are needed for unusual applications can also be created by using the many examples in this book as a model. More ambitious readers will be able to extend this work to other character sets, such as phonetic or Cyrillic alphabets. A close study of the details captured in these METAFONT programs will reveal many previously unpublished tricks that type designers have learned during the past centuries. Computer Modern is a family of typefaces that includes 75 standard fonts, ranging from the sans-serif faces used to typeset the copy on this book jacket to the more formal alphabets and mathematical symbols used to typeset the text of the book itself. The 75 standard fonts can easily be extended to an essentially infinite number of further variations, because Computer Modern is a "meta-design" rather than a single design. In particular, this means that different point sizes of type can be drawn to different specifications, thereby obtaining better readability. Compatible typefaces can be generated for all sorts of printing equipment, ranging from low-resolution CRT displays to medium-resolution laser printers to high-resolution phototypesetters. Charles Bigelow's introduction explains the history of the "modern" style of the type design, which originated 200 years ago and is being brought up to date by the developments in this book. The type designs are accompanied by almost 750 illustrations, which are interesting in their own right as examples of mechanically constructed letterforms. Specimens of the 75 standard fonts appear near the close of this book, followed by several comprehensive indexes. Computer Modern Typefaces is the fifth in a five-volume series on Computers and Typesetting, all authored by Knuth. This series presents the results of nearly a decade of innovative research on the problems of preparing publications of high typographic quality.

Book Synopsis Technical Typography Using Personal Computers by :
Download or read book Technical Typography Using Personal Computers written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technical typography is fully within the capabilities of the personnel computer. Two software packages seemed best able to meet our requirements: EXACT and PC TeX. This report describes the installation, use, capabilities, and results of these packages. Although both packages produce very good results, EXACT is, by far, the more suitable of the two for technical typesetting by general users. This program can answer most publication requirements. PC TeX is more appropriate for users involved in publishing technical manuscripts, who require the highest quality of technical typography. General users willing to expend the necessary time and effort to master PC TeX will find that outstanding results can be obtained. Both packages are acceptably fast when outputting to a laser printer, but only EXACT's draft mode is acceptable, in terms of speed, for generating output on a dot-matrix printer. Keywords: Computer programs; Typography.
