About Source Serif 4

Frank Griesshammer'ın Source Serif 4'ü, Adobe'nin Source Sans'a eşlik eden serif ailesi olan Source Serif'in olgunlaşmış evrimi olup optik boyutlandırma ve ağırlık değişken eksenleriyle nüanslı bir geçişsel serift olarak art arda versiyonlarda iyileştirildi. opsz ekseni, boyut değiştikçe yazı tipinin harf ayrıntılarını otomatik olarak ayarlamasına olanak tanır — küçük boyutlarda aralıkları genişletir ve açıklıkları artırır; görüntü boyutlarında ise oranları sıkıştırarak kontrastı artırır. Kiril, Yunan ve Vietnamca desteği onu editoryal sistemler, teknik belgeler ve dijital kitaplar için yetenekli bir küresel yazı tipi yapar.

Typography Concepts

  • Measure

    The length of a line of text, typically 45–75 characters for optimal readability. Too long or too short reduces reading comfort.

  • Font Family

    A group of related fonts that share the same basic design but vary in weight, width, or style. In CSS, the font-family property specifies preferred fonts.

  • unicode-range

    CSS descriptor in @font-face that specifies which Unicode characters to download from a font file, enabling automatic subsetting by the browser.

  • font-variation-settings

    CSS property to control variable font axes directly — weight, width, slant, and custom axes. Lower-level than font-weight/font-stretch.

  • Optical Size

    Adjusting letterform details based on the intended display size. Small text needs more spacing and heavier strokes; large text can be more refined.

  • Vertical Rhythm

    Consistent spacing pattern that aligns text baselines and element spacing to a baseline grid. Creates visual harmony on the page.
