  1. Review typesetting terminology

  2. Terminology • Loose line abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

  3. Terminology • Tight line abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

  4. Terminology A B • Tracking In typography, tracking, also called letter-spacing, refers to the amount of space between a group of letters to affect density in a line or block of text.

  5. Terminology • Widow A paragraph-ending line that falls at the beginning of the following page/column, thus separated from the remainder of the text. The Chicago Manual of Style

  6. Terminology • Orphan (1) A paragraph-opening line that appears by itself at the bottom of a page/column. The Chicago Manual of Style

  7. Terminology • Orphan (2) A word, part of a word, or very short line that appears by itself at the end of a paragraph. Orphans result in too much white space between paragraphs or at the bottom of a page. The Chicago Manual of Style

  8. Terminology • White space White space, also known as negative space, is the term describing open space between design elements. Margins, leading, space between letters, words, paragraphs.

  9. Terminology • River In typography, rivers, or rivers of white, are visually unattractive gaps appearing to run down a paragraph of text, due to an accidental alignment of spaces.

  10. Terminology • Out of register An imperfect REGISTER, meaning that the two sides of a printed sheet do not back each other perfectly, or the impression is not in correct position in relation to the other matter already ruled or printed on the sheet. http://palimpsest.stanford.edu/don/dt/dt2403.html

  12. PRINCE Princess Typesetting a Bible with Prince XML Jim AlbrightWycliffe Bible Translators

  13. My assignment Create or extend a standard that will allow us to exchange Bibles in the process of translation that handles • multiple back translations (different languages), • translator and consultant notes, and • status of translation.

  14. OXES based on OSIS OXES (Open XML for Editing Scripture) was developed to add requested features. OSIS focuses on the finished translation. OXES includes process information so in the future translators will know why a passage was translated the way it is. OSIS is highly extensible. OXES is restrictive. All options are explicitly named.
