Handset Typeface Design Research

With the enhanced features and mobile terminal technology, font design has long been not only limited to the media on paper. Text as a carrier of information dissemination from the original handwriting to print and then to the present information technology environment of the screen text, should be gradually adapt to the Internet, information technology, digital technology developed on the basis of the mobile media environment, adapt to different communication environment with different display forms.However, compared to other traditional media in the development process of mobile fonts relatively short history of development of many fonts for mobile phones is often limited to the study at the technical level. From the perspective of visual design research in the field of mobile fonts less. Thus, research in this area would be a good challenge and try. Text is divided into four chapters, while excluding Introduction and Conclusion sections.The first chapter entitled "Mobile Font course of development" from the sort of evolution of the mobile phone carrier font, font generation mobile phone, format and type font and phone the main features of the dissemination of information in three areas, combing the font of mobile phone development process.The second chapter entitled "Mobile Font design principles analysis." First, from the font of its own shape, a different font formats and mobile visual illusions analyzes the impact of mobile phones can be knowledge of the principles of the font. Second, the needs of different audiences, font, cell phone screen with the personality traits of adaptability analysis of both the adaptability of a mobile phone font design principles; third, from the font style, font strokes, direction and angle of the font space analysis of the principle of unity of type design mobile phone; the fourth, three-dimensional display from the phone and the screen technology of both limiting factors analysis of technical phone font design principles.The third chapter entitled "Mobile Font design practice", according to the summary of the design principles previously carried out under the guidance of design practice.Paper attempts to utilize a wide range of perspectives, analysis Mobile font design principles to the design of the font for the phone to provide some theoretical guidance.
