In typography, a font superfamily or typeface superfamily is a font family containing fonts that fall into multiple classifications. [ 1 ] The norm in a superfamily is to start from an identical character shape; class-specific features such as serifs are added to that shape.
In computer graphics, a texture atlas (also called a spritesheet or an image sprite in 2D game development) is an image containing multiple smaller images, usually packed together to reduce overall dimensions. [1] An atlas can consist of uniformly-sized images or images of varying dimensions. [1]
UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping. The letters "U" and "V" denote the axes of the 2D texture because "X", "Y", and "Z" are already used to denote the axes of the 3D object in model space, while "W" (in addition to XYZ) is used in calculating quaternion rotations, a common ...
Paint texture on The Sower with Setting Sun by Vincent van Gogh. In the visual arts, texture refers to the perceived surface quality of a work of art.It is an element found in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional designs, and it is characterized by its visual and physical properties.
In metal typesetting, a font (American English) or fount (Commonwealth English) is a particular size, weight and style of a typeface, defined as the set of fonts that share an overall design. For instance, the typeface Bauer Bodoni (shown in the figure) includes fonts " Roman " (or "regular"), " bold " and " italic "; each of these exists in a ...
The Archard equation is a simple model used to describe sliding wear and is based on the theory of asperity contact. [1]= where: Q is the total volume of wear debris produced K is the wear coefficient
Drypoint is a printmaking technique of the intaglio family, in which an image is incised into a plate (or "matrix") with a hard-pointed "needle" of sharp metal or diamond point. In principle, the method is practically identical to engraving .
An example of a situation that demands contextual kerning in the Minion Pro font is the sequence of three characters f.” (f, period, quotation mark), as is often found at the end of a quotation. Using the font's kerning tables, the quotation mark is too close to the f, although without the period between them their spacing is adequate. The ...
