True/False
Indicate whether the statement is true or false.
 

 1. 

The consistent use of type provides valuable information cues to the reader.
 

 2. 

Until recently, Web typography meant having to use too many <font> tags and lots of text as graphics.
 

 3. 

Most of the type principles that apply to paper-based design do not apply to the Web.
 

 4. 

In strict typography terms, a font is the name of the type, such as Times New Roman or Futura Condensed.
 

 5. 

Your pages will look cleaner when you choose more fonts and sizes of type.
 

 6. 

A section heading should have a larger, bolder type, while a page heading would appear in the same typeface, only lighter or smaller.
 

 7. 

You should avoid making random changes in your use of type conventions.
 

 8. 

The user will always see the exact font you have specified.
 

 9. 

The position of text wrapping at the end of each line does not depend on the font.
 

 10. 

The computer screen has a lower resolution than the printed page, making fonts that are legible on paper more difficult to read on-screen.
 

 11. 

Creating text as a graphic allows you to add drop shadows and other effects to your text.
 

 12. 

Including text as graphics means users cannot search for that text.
 

 13. 

The measurement values you choose when designing a style sheet depend on the destination medium for your content.
 

 14. 

When using absolute units, the measurement values require only a number.
 

 15. 

When using absolute units, the numeric value cannot be negative.
 

 16. 

Although the point is the standard unit of measurement for type sizes, it is not the best measurement value for the Web.
 

 17. 

In CSS, the em unit can only be used for horizontal measurement.
 

 18. 

In addition to stating font sizes, em is useful for padding and margins as well.
 

 19. 

Measurements stated in em are always relative to their environment.
 

 20. 

The height of the lowercase letter x varies widely from one type face to another.
 

 21. 

The em unit is a less reliable unit of measurement than the ex unit.
 

 22. 

The size of a pixel is determined by the display resolution.
 

 23. 

As resolutions grow in value, the individual pixel size gets larger.
 

 24. 

Child elements do not inherit the percentage values of their parents.
 

 25. 

CSS font properties describe the spacing around the text rather than affecting the actual text itself.
 

 26. 

You can string together a list of font families, separated by commas, supplying a selection of fonts that the browser can attempt to match.
 

 27. 

The default type weight is equal to 700.
 

 28. 

The font shortcut property lets you abbreviate the more verbose individual property listings.
 

 29. 

Negative values for the text-indent property let you create a hanging indent.
 

 30. 

The <font> element is deprecated specifically in favor of CSS style rules.
