Letterspacing

Spacing between letters. The spacing materials used for letterspacing are very thin. Most fonts have spaces of 1 point (made of brass) that can be used singly or in groups. Others are even thinner: 1/2 point (copper) and 1/4 point (stainless steel). There is even a letterspace made of paper. Consider how thin a piece of paper is-this will give you an indication of just how finely letterspacing can be adjusted.
