Chapter 2 Reading Review


Chapter 2 talked a lot about the structure of typefaces and fonts. This chapter was especially helpful for the assignment where we had to make copies of the front cover and one page in our book. I had no idea that fonts were measured the way they are using points and picas. Now it is easier to understand why they use the font size numbers on a word document or another program. I also found the spacing between letters to be a fascinating aspect of typefaces. A font that has unique spacing between each letters is more diverse to me than a monospaced font.
