title More on colours
Analogous colours colours adjacent to one another on the colour wheel (e.g. violet, red and orange).

image https://99designs-blog.imgix.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Kern-Lead-Track-full-width.png?auto=format&q=60&fit=max&w=930
kerning the adjustment of space between pairs of letters in the same word.
kerning adds or subtracts space between letters to create more visually appealing and readable text.
leading also known as line-height, the space between two lines of text.
tracking the adjustment of space for groups of letters and entire blocks of text.
tracking affects every character in the selected text and is used to change its overall appearance.
title Paper properties
Paper color Most paper is white. However, there are hundreds of different shades of white. Some whites are very warm, almost yellow. Others are cool, almost blue or gray.
Paper coating How smooth the surface of the paper feels. The degree of smoothness is created during the paper-making process.
Paper weight Paper is graded according to its weight — which is usually expressed in terms of how much 500 sheets of the paper in its standard size weighs.
Strength how well the paper holds up under stress. Paper bags and envelopes need a high degree of strength.
Thickness Thick papers don’t have to weigh a lot. Some books are printed on very thick but lightweight paper, which makes the book look like it has more pages.
Brightness how light reflects off the paper. Some papers contain fluorescents so they appear brighter. This makes the paper sparkle more, but can affect the color of printed images.
Opacity refers to how much the text or images printed on the other side of the page show through.
title Office bindings
Three-ring binding uses three punched holes in the paper and a three-ring binder.
Plastic comb binding uses a plastic insert with teeth that fit into rectangular holes in the paper.
Spiral binding uses a metal or plastic spiral that coils through many small holes on the side of the paper.
Wir-O binding similar to spiral binding, but instead of a single spiral, two wire teeth fit into rectangular holes in the paper.
Velo binding uses two plastic strips on either side of the document. The strips are held together with plastic pins and bound together with heat.
Fastback binding uses a cloth or paper strip wrapped around the spine of the pages and then glued in position.
Saddle-stitch binding uses two or more staples inserted right at the fold of the paper.
Side-stitch binding combines all the signatures and the cover and stitches them together with staples on the outside of the book cover.
Perfect binding gathers all the signatures together. The spine is then ground to create a fl at edge, and a paper cover is glued around the spine.
Lay-flat binding gathers all the signatures together and grinds the spine as in perfect binding. Th e cover is then glued to the book at each side of the spine, which allows the pages of the book to lay flat when opened.
