This reference is a fascinating and complete guide to using fonts and
typography on the Web and across a variety of operating systems and
application software. Fonts & Encodings shows you how to take full
advantage of the incredible number of typographic options available,
with advanced material that covers everything from designing glyphs to
developing software that creates and processes fonts. The era of ASCII
characters on green screens is long gone, and industry leaders such as
Apple, HP, IBM, Microsoft, and Oracle have adopted the Unicode Worldwide
Character Standard. Yet, many software applications and web sites still
use a host of standards, including PostScript, TrueType, TeX/Omega, SVG,
Fontlab, FontForge, Metafont, Panose, and OpenType. This book explores
each option in depth, and provides background behind the processes that
comprise today's "digital space for writing":
- Part I introduces Unicode, with a brief history of codes and
encodings including ASCII. Learn about the morass of the data that
accompanies each Unicode character, and how Unicode deals with
normalization, the bidirectional algorithm, and the handling of East
Asian characters.
- Part II discusses font management, including installation, tools for
activation/deactivation, and font choices for three different systems:
Windows, the Mac OS, and the X Window System (Unix).
- Part III deals with the technical use of fonts in two specific
cases: the TeX typesetting system (and its successor, W, which the
author co-developed) and web pages.
- Part IV describes methods for classifying fonts: Vox, Alessandrini,
and Panose-1, which is used by Windows and the CSS standard. Learn about
existing tools for creating (or modifying) fonts, including FontLab and
FontForge, and become familiar with OpenType properties and AAT fonts.
Nowhere else will you find the valuable technical information on fonts
and typography that software developers, web developers, and graphic
artists need to know to get typography and fonts to work properly.
