=== Color === <!-- A disambiguation link from "Colour (disambiguation)" is anchored here. Please change the link if you change the heading. --> {{Main|Type color}} In typesetting, ''color'' is the overall density of the ink on the page, determined mainly by the typeface, but also by the word spacing, [[leading]], and depth of the margins.<ref>{{Citation|last=Eckersley|first=Richard|title=Glossary of Typesetting Terms|publisher=University of Chicago Press|year=1994|series=Chicago guides to writing, editing and publishing| chapter=Color|isbn = 978-0-226-18371-8 |oclc= 316234150}}</ref> Text layout, tone, or color of the set text, and the interplay of text with the [[White space (visual arts)|white space]] of the page in combination with other graphic elements impart a "feel" or "resonance" to the subject matter. With [[Printing press|printed]] media, typographers also are concerned with binding margins, paper selection, and printing methods when determining the correct color of the page.
