TRUETYPE FONTS

S prihodom grafičnih uporabniških vmesnikov in grafičnega oblikovanja tekst ni bil več samo sredstvo za vizualno predstavitev jezika, ampak je prevzel še vrsto dodatnih funkcij grafičnega izražanja, ki jih prinaša tipografija. V diplomski nalogi bomo preučili funkcije teksta, osnove tipografije, značilne tipe digitalnih tipografij, predvsem črkopise TrueType, in se skozi študij prosto dostopnih orodij za oblikovanje pisav seznanili s postopkom definiranja novega črkopisa. Implementirali bomo tudi lastni uporabniško prijazni urejevalnik pisav in demonstrirali njegovo uporabo skozi tvorbo lastnega črkopisa TrueType. Dejansko gre pri tem za program za 2D risanje s shranjevanjem v javnem datotečnem formatu TrueType.With the advent of graphical user interfaces and graphic design, text was not longer just a means for visual presentation language, but it took a series of additional features of graphic expression, brought about by the typography. In diploma thesis we will examine the features of the text, typography basics, specific types of digital typefaces, especially TrueType alphabet. Through the study of freely accessible tools for font creation, we will get acquainted with the process of defining a new alphabet. We will also implement own user-friendly font editor and demonstrate its use through the formation of our own TrueType alphabet. Actually, such software is a program for 2D drawing with storage in the public TrueType file format
