Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 402 Reshaping letterforms to match the intervals of a pattern, part of Deke's Techniques.
- In this movie, I'll show you…how to manually reshape the letterforms…associated with specialty display type…so that those letters better match their patterns,…here inside Photoshop.…Now, as you can see, I'm way zoomed in on my text.…And notice the serifs on either side…of this bar across the top of the T.…Each one of them ends in points.…And that's not how it should be at all.…We should really be seeing these beveled bottoms…at the ends of the serifs,…as intended by the font's original designer.…
Also take a look at the N.…Notice how this big, thick counter…meets with this skinny vertical stem.…We've got a little divot at this location,…and it seems to me that both of the stems…are far too narrow as compared with…this final, sturdier version of the letter.…Now, things become even more precarious…when we start taking a look at the Q and the Z.…Notice that the serif over here on the left-hand side…ends in a point once again,…and this counter down left,…which should end in a point, is beveled off.…
Now, worse still is the rounded bull…
