dc.description.abstract | Graphic designers create logos or artworks by using various tools such as Adobe Illustrator, InDesign etc. Many times, designers face a major problem where they want to change the visual appearance of the text to fit the design in the current context or to make the design look better, but text editing options provided today are very limiting to the user's creativity. The designers get around this by converting text to outlines and then modifying each glyph like a separate graphic. This leads to text no longer being live (essentially unlinked) and the edits for each glyph can be time consuming. The poster presents methods for modifying glyph's horizontal and vertical weight. Later, the poster aims to provide the application of such modification to generate multiple styles by modifying glyph's overall Weight, Width, CapHeight, xHeight, height of Ascender and Descender etc. | en_US |
