About EB Garamond

EB Garamond — опенсорсное возрождение Georg Duffner типографики шестнадцатого века Клода Гарамона, стремящееся передать точный дух гуманистических шрифтов с засечками эпохи Ренессанса. Широкие пропорции, умеренный контраст штрихов и чистые засечки передают формальную элегантность, подходящую для академических изданий, художественной литературы и любых документов, требующих исторической типографической строгости. Поддерживаются кириллица и греческий.

Typography Concepts

  • Baseline

    The invisible line on which most letters sit. Descenders extend below the baseline.

  • Ascender

    The part of a lowercase letter that extends above the x-height, as in 'b', 'd', 'h', 'k', 'l'.

  • Contrast (Typography)

    The difference between the thickest and thinnest parts of a letter's strokes. High-contrast fonts (like Didot) have dramatic variation.

  • Ligature

    Two or more letters combined into a single glyph, like 'fi' or 'fl'. Common in serif fonts and coding fonts (e.g., Fira Code).

  • Glyph

    A single visual representation of a character. One character can have multiple glyphs (e.g., regular and italic 'a').

  • Bowl

    The curved stroke creating an enclosed counter in letters like 'b', 'd', 'p', 'q'. The shape varies widely between typefaces.
