翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Reverse-contrast typefaces ： ウィキペディア英語版 Reverse-contrast typefaces A reverse-contrast typeface is one in which the stress is reversed from the norm: instead of the vertical lines being the same width or thicker than horizontals, which is normal in Latin-alphabet printing, the horizontal lines are the thickest. This kind of typeface is rarely used for body text, being more used in display applications such as headings and posters, in which the unusual structure may be particularly eye-catching. They were particularly common in the mid- to late nineteenth century in American and British printing, and have been revived occasionally since then. They effectively become slab serif designs because of the serifs becoming thick, and are often characterised as part of that genre. In recent times particularly the reverse-contrast effect has been extended to other kinds of typeface, such as sans-serif designs. ==Historical background== Since the earliest days of printing in roman (or antiqua) type, it has been the norm for the vertical lines to generally be the same width or thicker than the horizontals where serifs are not present, sometimes at an angle mimicking the result of writing with a quill pen. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, printers developed what are now called transitional and then Didone types, with a more intense contrast in stroke width that could show off high-quality paper and printing technology. These types had a strictly vertical stress, with the vertical lines thicker than the horizontals. They also had a far greater amount of stroke contrast than before, with the difference in stroke width much greater than in earlier types. A second major development of the period was the arrival of the printed poster and increasing use of printing for publicity and advertising material, for example in newspaper adverts. This caused a desire to develop eye-catching new types of letters. As a result, new styles of display type began to appear, such as slab serif and sans-serif types around the same time, which were not just larger versions of body text-oriented serif fonts. Presumably to be more eye-catching, these new typefaces were often extremely bold; they may have been inspired by signpainting or vice versa. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reverse-contrast typefaces」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
