Type 2
The advantages of a multiple column grid are it is more flexible for design, there is a lot more options for placing text and pictures, you rant as limited. A good guideline for how much text fits on one line is between 9 and 12 words but 12 can sometimes be too much to read depending. The baseline grid is used as an underlaying structure that helps guide the vertical spacing of your design.Justified type has a very geometric appearance, created by both the right and left margins being aligned. Ragged type is easier to set, more natural to read, and requires less adjustment to finesse. Rag right settings are more informal, such that the reader usually doesn’t even notice the alignment. Rivers in typography are gaps in typesetting, which appear to run through a paragraph of text, due to a coincidental alignment of spaces. The flow line or clothesline is an imaginary line that aligns horizontally to text and allows for easy readability and flow.Hanging punctuation is when the quotation mark hangs outside the line of the text.Combining typefaces is like making a salad. Start with a small number of elements representing different colors, tastes, and textures. hen mixing typefaces on the same line, designers usually adjust the point size so that the x-heights align. Some different ways to indicate a new paragraph are indents, adding space between paragraphs.
