. About Fonts and Faces

1.     A font is a collection of characters of a particular font size, font style of a typeface. For example, within Times New Roman, however, there are many fonts to choose from -- different sizes, italic, bold, and so on.

2.     The term font is often used incorrectly as a synonym for typeface. For example, Arial is a typeface and Arial 12 point Bold is a font.

3.     Typefaces are the graphic representation or the shape of the alphabet, numbers, and special characters and usually vary by type sizes and styles. For example, Times New Roman, Arial, and Century Gothic are few examples of typefaces.

4.     Typical font styles are bold, italic and underline.

5.     Font sizes are usually measured in points where one point is equal to 0.138 inches or 1/72 of an inch. The font size is determined by measuring between the top of a capital letter to the bottom of descenders in letters such as g and y.

text

What is text?

a.     the basic element of most multimedia titles consisting of words, sentences and paragraphs in the form of

«  Page titles

«  Labels for pictures

«  Instructions for operating the applications

b.     used to convey information or describe abstract ideas that have no visual or aural component (e.g. feeling)

c.     developers are concerned with text from 2 view points:

«  the way the text is presented - easy to read, well-designed (font, color and size)

testing

Testing

1.     Testing is an unavoidable rule in any multimedia projects. You must test or review your project or Web site to ensure it is bug free, accurate, operationally and visually on target, and achieving the objective or target.

2.     Testing is not an easy process. Every feature and function must be exercised, every button or link must be clicked. Then the same thing will be repeated again and again with different hardware and under various conditions.

3.     Testing can be done in two phases and they are usually known as alpha testing and beta testing. This term is used to describe at which level of product development when testing is done and feedback is sought.

              i.        Alpha testing.

Ø  In alpha testing, your product is evaluated relatively in the early stage of the development phase. The application may be missing part of the content or functionality.

Ø  The main interest is to review the concept, format, user interface and the layout.

Ø  The tester may be some selected users or friends, most often the team member themselves. They should be able to provide positive criticism or feedback.

             ii.        Beta testing.

Ø  The product is evaluated just before the final release. It is a fully functioning product and should be relative bug free.

Ø  The main interest is to find bugs or content errors.

Ø  The testing group should be represented by the real users and should not include the people who have been involved in the project.

Ø  The feedbacks from these testers are very important where the errors or problems reported by the beta testers have to include the detail description of the problem.
