glyph teriminin İngilizce İngilizce sözlükte anlamı: A visual representation of a letter, character, or symbol, in a specific font and style; A vertical groove; A figure carved in relief or incised, especially representing a sound, word, or idea; Any non-verbal symbol that imparts information; {n} an ornamented cavity in building; Yapı tezyinatında oyuk şeklinde yiv, glif; Oyma veya kabartma şekli; A graphic shape The name given to the shape defines the meaning For example the shape B may be the second character in our latin alphabet or the third letter in the cyrillic alphabet (pronounced like our w) The shape ³ may have the name «greater then or equal symbol»; (n) A compound mark used in a visualization that cannot be classified by other commonly used marks Glyphs are usually custom designed to encode multiple elements of data into a single mark The objective for designing glyphs or any other marks is to tap into the innate perceptual abilities of the viewer; A glyph is an image, often asociated with one or several characters So the glyph used to draw "f" is associated with the character f, while the glyph for the "fi" ligature is associated with both f and i In simple latin fonts the association is often one to one (there is exactly one glyph for each character), while in more complex fonts or scripts there may be several glyphs per character (In renaissance printing the letter "s" had two glyphs associated with it, one, the long-s, was used initially and medially, the other, the short-s, was used only at the end of words) And in the ligatures one glyph is associated with two or more characters Fonts are collections of glyphs with some form of mapping from character to glyph; (1) An abstract form that represents one or more glyph images (2) A synonym for glyph image In displaying Unicode character data, one or more glyphs may be selected to depict a particular character These glyphs are selected by a rendering engine during composition and layout processing (See also character ); The inaccurate, but widely used term for the graphical symbol for a planet or sign The correct term is Sigil; An image for a *character in a particular font and style TrueType draws the distinction between (displayed) glyphs and (semantic) *characters Characters are merely codes, remaining constant irrespective of font or style The character map table *'cmap' maps characters indices onto the glyphs stored sequentially in the *'glyf' table A TrueType glyph may be simple (made up of *outlines plus *instructions) or *composite (made up of other glyphs plus instructions); An identified abstract graphical symbol independent of any actual image (ISO/IEC/DIS 9541-1) An abstract visual representation of a graphic character, not bound to a codepoint; {i} small decorative sculpture of a figure, carving; heiroglyph, picture used to represent a word or idea; symbol that conveys an idea nonverbally; An abstract form which represents one or more glyph images, and which is used to visually depict encoded character data In displaying Unicode character data, one or more glyphs may be selected to depict a particular character These glyphs are selected by a rendering engine during composition and layout processing See also character; A glyph is a char/pattern in a font; A symbolic figure or character that stands for a letter, sound, or word; many glyphs make up a writing system; A single formed character or symbol, usually representing a letter in a font; a graphic representation of a character; glyptic art in the form of a symbolic figure carved or incised in relief; A carved figure or character, incised or in relief; a carved pictograph; hence, a pictograph representing a form originally adopted for sculpture, whether carved or painted; The distinct visual representation of a character in a form that a screen or printer can display A glyph may represent one character (the lowercase a), more than one character (the fi ligature), part of a character (the dot over an i), or a nonprinting character (the space character) See also character; A sunken channel or groove, usually vertical; A graphic symbol whose appearance conveys information; for example, the vertical and horizontal arrows on cursor keys that indicate the directions in which they control cursor movement; a symbol, such as on a public sign, that imparts information without words, especially a figure or character incised or in relief; A shorthand symbol for refering to a planet, zodiac sign, aspect or other astrological concept See also Glyph Glossary; a shape that is the visual representation of a character It is a graphic object stored within a font Glyphs are objects that are recognisably related to particular characters and which are dependent on particular design (i e g, g and g are all distinct glyphs) Glyphs may or may not correspond to characters in a one-to-one manner For example, a single character may correspond to multiple glyphs that have complementary distributions based upon context (e g final and non-final sigma in Greek), or several characters may correspond to a single glyph known as a ligature (e g conjuncts in Devanagari script) (For more information on glyphs and their relationship to characters, see ISO/IEC TR 15285 ); The word glyph is used differently in different contexts In the context of modern computer operating systems, it is often defined as a shape in a font that is used to represent a character code on screen or paper The most common example of a glyph is a letter, but the symbols and shapes in a font like ITC Zapf Dingbats are also glyphs Also see character, character encoding, keyboard layout; (Globalization Support Guide; search in this book); The actual shape (bit pattern, outline) of a character ISO/IEC Standard 9541-1: 1991 defines a glyph as a recognizable abstract graphic symbol that is independent of any specific design; A graphical representation of a character; (1) The actual shape (bit pattern, outline) of a character image For example, an italic 'a' and a roman 'a' are two different glyphs representing the same underlying character In this strict sense, any two images which differ in shape constitute different glyphs In this usage, ``glyph'' is a synonym for ``character image'', or simply ``image'' (2) A kind of idealized surface form derived from some combination of underlying characters in some specific context, rather than an actual character image In this broad usage, two images would constitute the same glyph whenever they have essentially the same topology (as in oblique 'a' and roman 'a'), but different glyphs when one is written with a hooked top and the other without (the way one prints an 'a' by hand) In this usage, ``glyph'' is a synonym for ``glyph type,'' where glyph is defined as in sense 1; [writ] Symbol (s) used in writing, or characters used to convey information; i e an arrow on a sign; An object or symbol for representing data values Glyphs are generally a way of representing many data values and are sometimes called icons A common glyph is the arrow, often chosen to represent vector fields The arrow depicts both speed and direction at a point [KEL93]; Another name for a character; A bounded 2D graphic typically used to represent some character or other abstraction A symbol In a font, a glyph is the name given to one character's geometric description; n a visual representation {"Graphic characters have associated glyphs "}
