Editing Typography (section)

== Scope ==
In contemporary use, the practice and study of typography include a broad range, covering all aspects of letter design and application, both mechanical ([[typesetting]], [[type design]], and typefaces) and manual ([[handwriting]] and [[calligraphy]]). Typographical elements may appear in a wide variety of situations, including:
* [[Document]]s
* Presentations
* Display typography (described below)
* Clothing
* Maps and [[Labeling (map design)|labels]]
* Vehicle instrument panels
* As a component of [[industrial design]]—type on household appliances, pens, and wristwatches, for example
* As a component in modern poetry (for example, the poetry of {{notatypo|[[e. e. cummings]]}})

Since digitization, typographical uses have spread to a wider range of applications, appearing on web pages, [[Liquid crystal display|LCDs]] mobile phone screens, and hand-held video games.
