<p>typecards is a digital typographic reference that goes with you on all your devices. Use the flash cards to build your typographic knowledge or search for terms and keywords to discover oddities like what that little hook on a ‘g’ is really called.</p>
<p>Pull down the cards to get started or enter a search term to jump to a specific card. After that you can swipe to navigate through the cards and tap a card to flip it and view its details.</p>

<h1 class="term-title">Aperture</h1>
<img src="assets/img/characters/aperture.png" class="character-small">
<h2 class="meta-title">Definition</h2>
<p>The open space in the partially enclosed, somewhat rounded negative space of a letter form or symbol (or open counter). </p>
<p>Some type families have very narrow apertures, while others are much wider. At small sizes or at low resolution the apertures of some letters may fill in and appear solid, decreasing readability (like with Helvetica).</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Also Known As</h2>
<p>open counter</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Examples</h2>
<p>Characters containing an aperture include c, e, g, h, m, n, s, u, C, G, S, and U</p>

<h1 class="term-title">Apex</h1>
<img src="assets/img/characters/apex.png" class="character-small">
<h2 class="meta-title">Definition</h2>
<p>The point at the top of a character—such as an uppercase A–where the vertical strokes meet. The apex may be a sharp point, blunt, hallow, extended or rounded. The apex will typically extend past the cap-line, especially with families that are pointed (like with Futura) or hallow.</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Also Known As</h2>
<p>top</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Examples</h2>
<p>The tops of the letters A, M, N, and W</p>

<h1 class="term-title">Arm</h1>
<img src="assets/img/characters/arm.png" class="character-small">
<h2 class="meta-title">Definition</h2>
<p>The arm of a letter is the horizontal stroke that does not connect to a vertical stroke or stem at one or both ends. The top of the capital T and the horizontal strokes of the F and E are examples of arms. Additionally, the diagonal upward stroke on a K is its arm. Sometimes arm is used interchangeably with bar, crossbar, or cross stroke.</p>
<p>Arm is also often used to describe the mostly horizontal top stroke of C, double-storey a, G, and other glyphs, to include the finial, terminal, spur, or other elements of the stroke.</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Also Known As</h2>
<p>crossbar, cross stroke</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Examples</h2>
<p>The arms of an uppercase F connect to the stem only at one end and the arm of an uppercase T sits at the top of the stem and doesn't connect at either end. In contrast a cross stroke intersects the stem of a lowercase t or f and the cross bar connects the diagonal strokes of an uppercase A or the vertical stems of an H.</p>

<h1 class="term-title">Ascender</h1>
<img src="assets/img/characters/ascender.png" class="character-small">
<h2 class="meta-title">Definition</h2>
<p>The upward vertical stroke on some lowercase letters, such as h and b, that extends above the x-height and often above the cap height. Families with shorter x-heights typically have longer ascenders and vice-versa.</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Also Known As</h2>
<p>extender</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Examples</h2>
<p>The stem of the letters b, d, h, k, and l that extends above the x-height.</p>

<h1 class="term-title">Axis</h1>
<img src="assets/img/characters/axis.png" class="character-small">
<h2 class="meta-title">Definition</h2>
<p>An imaginary line drawn from top to bottom of a glyph (letter or character of type) bisecting the upper and lower strokes that indicates the angle of stress. The inclination of the axis of the lowercase o is used to measure the angle of stress. A completely vertical axis indicates an angle of 0 or vertical stress, while an axis that leans to the left or right has angled (positive or negative) stress. Early styles of typography usually shared the same axis or stress angles.</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Also Known As</h2>
<p>stress, angle of stress</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Examples</h2>
<p>Old Style fonts, based on ancient Roman inscriptions, typically have a left-leaning or negative axis while Transitional styles that evolved later had less stress or a closer to vertical axis.</p>

<img src="assets/img/characters/baseline.png" class="character-small">
<h2 class="meta-title">Definition</h2>
<p>The imaginary line where a line of text appears to rest and below which descenders extend. The baseline combined with the height of the lowercase x define the x-height. The vertical distance between two baselines makes up the line height or leading. This vertical distance is used to create a vertical rhythm or vertical grid of a page.</p>
<h2 class="meta-title">Examples</h2>
<p>Letters such as i, m, n, w, x and z sit on the baseline while letters such as a, c, e, o, s, and u have an overshoot and sit just below the baseline.</p>

<img src="assets/img/characters/bowl.png" class="character-small">
<h2 class="meta-title">Definition</h2>
<p>The curved part of the character that encloses the circular or curved parts of some letters, such as d, b, o, D, and B. Some also consider the straight side of a closed counter to be a bowl.

<p>The bowl usually refers to the main, enclosed circular portion of some characters and not usually the curved loops that may be a part of the extenders or other flourishes on letters such as the double-storey g, cursive b, d, l or y.</p>

<p>The (usually) horizontal stroke that connects two stems, such as in an A or H. Although often used interchangeably, the crossbar differs from an arm and a cross stroke because each end connects to a stem or stroke and doesn’t (usually) intersect/cross over the stem or stroke.</p>

<p>An accent mark that aids in pronunciation. In many non-English Latin languages, it is used to differentiate homonyms.
