Modeling Reader's Emotional State Response on Document's Typographic Elements

Modeling Reader's Emotional State Response on Document's Typographic Elements

We present the results of an experimental study towards modeling the reader’s emotional state variations induced by the typographic elements in electronic documents. Based on the dimensional theory of emotions we investigate how typographic elements, like font style (bold, italics, bold-italics) and font (type, size, color and background color), affect the reader’s emotional states, namely, Ple...

Towards modeling of Readers' Emotional State response for the automated annotation of documents

This work presents an experimental study towards modeling the readers’ emotional state as a response to font and typesetting elements of documents presented on a LCD display. Any content and/or domain dependent information was excluded from the document that was tested. An automated computer-based experimental procedure has been followed based on the paper-and-pencil Self Assessment Manikin Tes...

Typographic sheets and structured documents

SUMMARY Document structure provides facilities for accessing and presenting hypermedia documents, and style sheets support their layout on screen (or paper). However, little attention is given to the quality of these documents in terms of typography, in the sense, for example, of abiding by the rules of the Chicago Manual of Style. This paper shows how the specification of typographic sheets ca...

Replicating Archaic Documents: A Typographic Challenge

The replication of archaic documents on paper using modern typographic tools is a quite challenging task. This task is usually broken in two sub-tasks: the design of a font that fully respects all aspects of the handwritten document and the design of software tools (macros for the digital typesetter and/or external routines) that are used to set the archaic document. Here we report on the creat...
