Answer the following question: Information:  - Lead, from the Old English "léad", is a chemical element with atomic number 82 and symbol Pb (after the Latin, "plumbum"). It has the second highest atomic number of all practically stable elements. As such, lead is located at the end of some decay chains of heavier elements, which in part accounts for its relative abundance: its stability exceeds those of other similarly-numbered elements. Lead is a soft, malleable, and heavy metal. Freshly cut lead has a bluish-white color that soon tarnishes to a dull grayish color when exposed to air; as a liquid, it has a shiny chrome-silver luster. Lead's density of 11.34 g/cm exceeds those of most common materials.   - Text figures (also known as non-lining, lowercase, old style, ranging, hanging, medieval, billing, or antique figures or numerals) are numerals typeset with varying heights in a fashion that resembles a typical line of running text, hence the name. They are contrasted with lining figures (also called titling or modern figures), which are the same height as upper-case letters.  - Latin (Latin: ) is a classical language belonging to the Italic branch of the Indo-European languages. The Latin alphabet is derived from the Etruscan and Greek alphabets.  - In typography, leading refers to the distance between the baselines of successive lines of type. The term originated in the days of hand-typesetting, when thin strips of lead were inserted into the forms to increase the vertical distance between lines of type. The term is still used in modern page layout software such as QuarkXPress and Adobe InDesign.  - In typography, a typeface (also known as font family) is a set of one or more fonts each composed of glyphs that share common design features. Each font of a typeface has a specific weight, style, condensation, width, slant, italicization, ornamentation, and designer or foundry (and formerly size, in metal fonts). For example, "ITC Garamond Bold Condensed Italic" means the bold, condensed-width, italic version of ITC Garamond. It is a different font from "ITC Garamond Condensed Italic" and "ITC Garamond Bold Condensed," but all are fonts within the same typeface, "ITC Garamond." ITC Garamond is a different typeface from "Adobe Garamond" or "Monotype Garamond." (These are all alternative updates or digitisations of the typeface Garamond, originally created in the 16th century.) There are thousands of different typefaces in existence, with new ones being developed constantly.  - X (named "ex" , plural "exes") is the 24th and antepenultimate letter in the modern English alphabet and the ISO basic Latin alphabet.  - In typography, line length is the width of a block of typeset text, usually measured in units of length like inches or points or in characters per line. A block of text or paragraph has a maximum line length that fits a determined design.  - Typography is the art and technique of arranging type to make written language legible, readable, and appealing when displayed. The arrangement of type involves selecting typefaces, point sizes, line lengths, line-spacing (leading), and letter-spacing (tracking), and adjusting the space between pairs of letters (kerning). The term typography is also applied to the style, arrangement, and appearance of the letters, numbers, and symbols created by the process. Type design is a closely related craft, sometimes considered part of typography; most typographers do not design typefaces, and some type designers do not consider themselves typographers. Typography also may be used as a decorative device, unrelated to communication of information.  - A written language is the representation of a spoken or gestural language by means of a writing system. Written language is an invention in that it must be taught to children, who will pick up spoken language (oral or sign) by exposure even if they are not specifically taught.  - In typography, kerning is the process of adjusting the spacing between characters in a proportional font, usually to achieve a visually pleasing result. Kerning adjusts the space between individual letter forms, while tracking (letter-spacing) adjusts spacing uniformly over a range of characters. In a well-kerned font, the two-dimensional blank spaces between each pair of characters all have a visually similar area.  - In typography , small capitals ( usually abbreviated small caps ) are uppercase ( capital ) characters set at the same height and weight as surrounding lowercase ( small ) letters or text figures . They are used in running text to prevent capitalized words from appearing too large on the page , and as a method of emphasis or distinctiveness for text alongside or instead of italics , or when boldface is inappropriate . For example , the all - caps TEXT IN CAPS appears as text in caps in small caps . They can be used to draw attention to the opening phrase or line of a new section of text , or to provide an additional style in a dictionary entry where many parts must be typographically differentiated . Well - designed small capitals are not simply scaled - down versions of normal capitals ; they normally retain the same stroke weight as other letters and have a wider aspect ratio for readability . Typically , the height of a small capital will be one ex , the same height as most lowercase characters in the font . In Anglo - Saxon typography , small caps are somewhat larger than the x-height . For example , in some Tiro Typeworks fonts , small caps are 30 % larger than x-height , and 70 % the height of full capitals . To differentiate between these two alternatives , the x-height form is sometimes called petite caps , preserving the name `` small caps '' for the larger variant . OpenType fonts can define both forms via the `` small caps '' and the `` petite caps '' features . Because the support for the petite caps feature is absent from most desktop - publishing programs , many fonts use x-height small caps in the small - caps feature . Many word processors and text - formatting systems include an option to format text in caps and small caps , which leaves uppercase letters as they are , but converts lowercase letters to small caps . How this is implemented depends on the typesetting system ; some can use true small caps associated with modern professional fonts , making text such as `` Latvia joined Nato on...  - Type design is the art and process of designing typeface.  - The ISO basic Latin alphabet is a Latin-script alphabet and consists of two sets of 26 letters, codified in various national and international standards and used widely in international communication.  - In typography, letter-spacing, usually called tracking by typographers, refers to a consistent degree of increase (or sometimes decrease) of space between letters to affect density in a line or block of text.
