Control your spacing & alignments with tabs & fixed spaces

Skilled Workman Posted on May 23, 2012 by David BergslandMay 23, 2012

Before we can get into this, though, we have to start with terminology. Typography requires a new language. Much of this is based on historical printing usage and the font design process. Without at least a few of these terms you will be lost. This has been complicated now that all of the digital terms have been added to the mix. So, we really need to start with a little of font design. Not only the different … Continue reading →
