Learn to Kern

[Erica McPhee]

This is the most fun I have had in awhile. It's a game where you try your hand at kerning (letter spacing) and then it compares it to how a typographer would do it. I scored 92 out of 100 (the first few tripped me up until I got the hang of it). Very fun!

This was a fun way to break the morning routine  . I got 90. A very cool way to show how important spacing is and a great way to try your hand at it.

This would be a great little teaching sideline in a typing class. I took typing as a junior in high school in 1973. We had IBM Selectric typewriters at school and I had a manual Olivetti typewriter at home. The Olivetti took the dual color ribbon (black and red inked) and of course the keys were not always well aligned (used more than a few of the old white paper correction strips).

Thanks Erica for the fun and for triggering a fond memory

Hehe, that was fun! I also scored 90. The first one was the worst, also the most debatable imho – I only scored like 59 there.

90.

And I scored 90 too 
The first one was my lowest score as well @Estefa

Thanks for sharing Erica @Erica McPhee
This was a fun little thing to do!

Awesome stuff Erica.   

The first 3 went crazy till I got a hang of it.  Scored a 94 though.  Quite happy with it.

Hmmm - I am really bad at this.

I got 82 but I am not sure I agree with the professionals on some of the choices - that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it :-)

This was super fun. I scored 93!

@Estefa The first one is definitely debatable. Even though i managed to get 85 there, I'm not sure what I did was right!!

Guess I need more practice with the spacing~!!
