Kerning is the spacing (or spatial distance) between individual letters or characters. In case the vague explanation didn’t do much for you—the purpose of kerning can be summed up in the creation of legible, functional, and visually pleasing typefaces. While it follows some strict rules and general guidelines, the kerning process is quite subjectiv...
A common mistake in design projects is to nottackle leading and tracking first. 1. Leading is the vertical spacing between lines of type. 2. Tracking (or letter-spacing), on the other hand, is the overall spacing between groups of letters. Unlike kerning, tracking is optically consistent when increasing (or decreasing) the visual density in a line ...
It’s not always the case that when constructing a font, type designers check the spacing of individual letters before they focus on kerning. Before you decide which font to buy or download, test some control pairings and look at the overall spacing of the characters included. Spot bad kerning by using the typical control pair “VA” and check the spa...
Bad kerning comes from a lack of knowledge about spatial relationships between letters. All letters fall down into one of the following categories: 1. Straight-edged (H, I); 2. Rounded (O, C, Q); 3. Diagonal-sided (A, V, Y). It’s important to note that when combining 2 straight letters, the distance in-between is slightly bigger than the distance b...
Inexperienced font designers often struggle kerning problematic letters like the uppercase A, W, Y, V, T, L, and the lowercase y and k. Due to their structure, characters feature the so-called “trap” space—the large gaps on one or both sides. When testing a new font or manually kerning one yourself, adjust space between difficult letters first. Rem...
When it comes to terrible kerning, more often than not we observe whole words starting out well, only to lose their balance by the end, and vice versa. A quick fix of bad kerning in a font is the handy method of trios. Focus on the first three letters of a word and hide the rest of the characters. Once you adjust the first group of three, follow th...
You’ll be shocked (and not in a good way) by the number of fonts with over-kerning issues. It occurs when there’s not enough space between letters left and words end up appearing too “tight”. It’s not pretty to look at and will make your text illegible.
As we mentioned before, kerning is a subjective process. Font designers adjust the space between letters and characters manually to achieve an overallvisually pleasing result. While this might cover a lot of use cases, you shouldn’t let software kern for you when working on a logotype or a headline, for example. For a polished final result go in an...
When a font feels off, it might be because kerning wasn’t a priority in the design process. Low-quality typefaces rarely have (or have limited) kerning, which means more trouble coming your way. Veteran type designers often speak of kerning as art. The reason behind it is that kerning isn’t the mathematically equal amount of space, but the perceive...
Learn how to avoid bad kerning and improve your typography skills with this guide. Find out what kerning is, how to kern letters individually and in pairs, and what tools to use for different fonts and languages.
Jul 27, 2022 · Kerning is the space between two typed letters that affects readability and aesthetics of typography. Learn how to spot good kerning vs. bad kerning (keming) and tips for adjusting kerning in your projects.
Kerning adjusts the space between individual letterforms while tracking (letter-spacing) adjusts spacing uniformly over a range of characters. [1] In a well kerned font, the two-dimensional blank spaces between each pair of characters all have a visually similar area.
Feb 5, 2024 · Keming is a humorous term for improper kerning, coined by combining the r and n into an m. It is an intentional misspelling of kerning, a typographic concept.
