Typesetting
"Typesetting" is the rendering of letterforms
on visible media. Examples are the words (not
the graphics) on the printed pages of a book,
or the words on the display of your computer
screen.
Software for typesetting covers a broad range:
software appropriate for typesetting a phone book
will be of little help in preparing a magazine.
Also, it is frequently difficult to separate the
"software" from the "system," so this category will
include proprietary typesetting systems.
One can't set type without fonts, so we will
address fonts here. We will also provide links
to related technologies and information
such as digital type design and research
on human perception of type.
