New blog post: “Short Lines, Bad Breaks, and CSS”

In today’s CSSWG meeting, there was one issue about the new value of `text-wrap-style` property — `avoid-orphans`.

There was agreement in the meeting that we should look for a better name, and open a separate issue about this, which I did, as well as opened another one — about the `orphans` and `widows` properties.

OK, friends. I could use your boosting powers on this one AND I could use your eyes for 5–10 min if you'd like to be helpful.

I've done the launch on the updated, multi-lingual & multi-device version of my font-spacing research test site. Please have a visit to letter.fit and take a look at a sample or two.

You don't have to be in #fonts #type or #typography — this is just "look at this sample, highlight things that stick out"; the value is in wide samples & lots of variety!

When you first visit the site, you can choose the language you want to work in and whether you want to look at desktop or mobile layouts...
There are a couple of questions (all ANONYMOUS!) about general demographics like your language, if you use glasses, and if you've had typography studies or work history
Then you get to look at samples! Each sample you'll see is a page of generic text, but in a randomly-chosen font. Just highlight any letter pairs that look too close or too far apart. That's it!
In the end, we collate all the data and look for patterns. What do people see, what do they see most frequently, do different font styles or experience levels make a difference; that kind of thing. But all that data-crunching is on the researchers to do. You just have to look at fonts!

Ok, I’m going to try my first thread about #typography on Mastodon. Wish me luck!

🔤🧵

Today’s thread is a story about some #lettering research I did, which led me to discover a strange mystery :

A sample of some script lettering by J. Albert Cavanaugh, reading 'New York' in a hand drawn connecting brush script.
