10 Deadly Semantic Mistakes in Web Typography
|
<br />This is from the content of Web front-end development design essentials written by Steven D. Although many designers are already very proficient in using web standards, it is regrettable that many details of typography still run counter to traditional screen printing requirements. Here are 10 deadly semantic errors that you should avoid in your web typography: 1. Use hyphens instead of an em dash  Using em dashes is a very popular practice among web editors today. 2. Use periods, not ellipses  This is a specialized typographical ellipsis mark (especially in Western European characters) consisting of three dots, as distinguished from the Chinese ellipsis symbol. 3. Use correct quotation marks  In quoted sections, you should keep quotation marks where necessary, which will indicate whether the section is licensed for use or is freely available for distribution. 4. Strictly control the double spacing between sentences  This is a classic mistake from the ASCII era. Double spacing is no longer used, so please be aware of this. 5. Accurate use of copyright symbols  Using the wrong copyright symbol not only violates the copyright agreement but may also have a negative impact on your copyright protection. You should use McCoy (©), which is the standard copyright symbol. 6. Don’t use too many emphasis expressions in your sentences  You can use bold, italics, or underlining to emphasize your content, but please don't use them on the same line. 7. Your hypertext link is underlined, not other content  This doesn’t make the content clearer to read. In fact, the reader can’t figure out why it’s important. If you really want to do this, you can try using border-bottom: solid 1px #00f; instead. 8. Design fake font styles through Photoshop  If your font does not provide bold, italic and other styles, please do not make them into pictures in Photoshop and then mix them into your web layout. This is very childish. 9. Don’t use accent characters  When you use words from other languages, especially names of people, please do not assume that your accent will determine the writing style. This is very impolite. 10. Don’t use CSS to define uppercase characters  Capital letters are difficult to read in the first place, so use them sparingly unless necessary for decoration, especially in full lines of text. |
