jargon words
一些行話囉~
1. WEIGHT
Weight is strictly an indication of the amount of vertical thickness in the characters of a font.
The main weights on offer these days are Extra Light, Light, Book, Medium, Semi-bold, Bold, Extra Bold and Black.
2. KERNING
Kerning is the reducing of the space allocated to one or both sides of a letter to make it fit more comfortably with its neighbour, to improve the colour in a word.
字體空隙最佳化
3. TRACKING
should not be confused with kerning. Tracking is an overall increase or decrease in letter spacing over a line, or over more than a line, to make it fit better.
4. ligature
連字(兩個字母相連)
5. character vs. glyph
A character is an abstract notion denoting a class of shapes declared to have the same meaning or form. A glyph is a specific instance of a character.
(ex. character 指所有字型中的"a"的不同樣貌; 但各字型中的"a"各自稱為一個 glyph)
6. decision trees
7. pattern recognition 辨識模式, 影像識別
8. invariant moment 恆定矩量
9. moment (力)矩
10. Optical character recognition (OCR) 光學字元辨識
