\u00bfQu\u00e9 significa editor de fuentes?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Un editor de fuentes es un tipo de software dise\u00f1ado espec\u00edficamente para modificar o crear archivos de fuentes<\/strong> para su uso en diversas aplicaciones.<\/p>\n

Pueden crear o editar fuentes de contorno o de mapa de bits<\/a>, o ambas, dependiendo de las intenciones del desarrollador del paquete de software. Sin embargo, la mayor\u00eda de los editores de fuentes modernos trabajan con fuentes de contorno, ya que las fuentes de mapa de bits son m\u00e1s especializadas y no se utilizan tanto.<\/p>\n

Definici\u00f3n de editor de fuentes<\/span><\/h2>\n

Los editores de fuentes se utilizan para crear o modificar fuentes ya existentes.<\/strong> Pueden ser compatibles con fuentes TrueType (TTF), Postscript, OpenType y otros formatos de fuentes dependiendo del software.<\/p>\n

Una forma m\u00e1s sencilla de describir un editor de fuentes ser\u00eda considerarlo ante todo un programa de dibujo, ya que permite al usuario dibujar los contornos de las letras, especificar \u00e1ngulos e implementar cualquier otra caracter\u00edstica que haya ideado un desarrollador.<\/p>\n

Algunos editores de fuentes permiten al usuario editar por bloques o p\u00edxeles<\/strong>, lo que aporta precisi\u00f3n, mientras que otros se aproximan a la creaci\u00f3n con bastante exactitud utilizando splines, l\u00edneas, puntos y trayectorias para luego crear matem\u00e1ticamente las fuentes.<\/p>\n

El usuario crea un mont\u00f3n de “im\u00e1genes”, los propios caracteres, y luego los agrupa en funci\u00f3n de ciertos metadatos o par\u00e1metros, como la distancia entre ellos, el \u00e1ngulo, la anchura y la altura. A continuaci\u00f3n, el editor las agrupa en archivos de fuentes que el ordenador puede utilizar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
