I think I found a workflow that is starting to work to kern with my game controller, the 8bitdo Micro, so I made a reference sheet! If you have ideas on how to improve it, please by all means share them, I'm looking to optimise this and I would love to know how you set up your own method :D #kerning #game

I have some documents that I need to read. Pray for me.

#Kerning

A few short paragraphs of text, in a sans-serif font, with bad kerning.

Colonel Umbo is investigating kerning crimes again.

#Columbo #Kerning

Picture of Peter Falk as inspector Columbo against a brown background, with yellow capital letters saying "Columbo" at the top right. Since there are large serifs on the letters and the kerning sucks, there's too much space between the L and the U, causing it to look more like "Col Umbo".

Italian typographer Giambattista Bodoni, born OTD in 1740, is even more admired as a compositor than as a type designer, composing his pages with the greatest subtlety of spacing cromwell-intl.com/open-source/ #Linux #kerning

Another year and F1 still hasn’t fixed the bloody kerning. Sort it out, Liberty!

#F1 #Formula1 #Kerning #Typography

A photo of a monitor showing the title screen for F1’s first pre-season testing at Bahrain. The screen is showing a grey box, with a horizontal gradient getting lighter at the bottom. There’s some lighter diagonal stripes. The F1 logo is at the top in red, with PRE-SEASON TESTING 1 - BAHRAIN under that in white with a lot of spacing between the letters. A big DAY 1 in white is under that with Sakhir in red overlapping it slightly on a handwritten-style font. 

With the way the text is formatted, the DAY looks a bit like DA Y due to the kerning not being correct.

I have opinions about the here, of course. What the hell is going on in that "RA" pair??

But the wine is very, very nice.

Ich kann es nicht nachvollziehen, wie man bei der kleinen Kerze das bei „dreaming“ und „Christmas“ richtig machen kann. Es aber bei der großen völlig versaut. 🤦‍♂️

Not one person pointing out the terrible text layout on these plaques. The lack of margin, the left aligned text, the split over multiple plaques. It’s basically been sent to print from Word, actually probably from Excel. #kerning

The original paper of “Parsing Expression Grammars” (PEG) is well-written and defines the grammar's semantics clearly in a set of definitions.

However, the header text of definitions has a very awkward kerning making it appear like “De fi nitions” or “Defi nitions”. I am accepting any guesses what has happened here.

#texlatex #kerning #digitalTypesetting

A screenshot from a paper shows a definition:
“Definition: A parsing expression grammar (PEG) is a 4-tuple G = (V_N ; V_T; R; e_S), where V_N is a finite set of nonterminal symbols, V_T is a finite set of terminal symbols, R is a finite set of rules, e_S is a parsing expression termed the start expression, and the intersection of V_N and V_T is empty.”

@CarolineSocial Not just me, then 😢

I know design is often a matter of taste and opinion, but I usually agree with the results of this online game for testing your kerning type.method.ac

So many problems with this sign ... I mean, how can I feel comfortable drinking this water? But the #kerning here is just nightmarish.

#kerningmatters

A sign at an airport, forbidding people "at risk of health problems" from drinking water from the drinking fountain
