Typography: Type Scale, Line Height, Line Length, Font Choice and Turkish Characters
Good typography rests on a few rules: a single-ratio type scale, 45–75 characters per line, 1.5–1.6 line-height for body text and tabular figures in tables. On Bookstore's book page we measure and fix 146-character lines and drifting decimal points, and show in Chromium the ch unit's trap in Inter, the ğ, ş, İ and ₺ missing from the latin subset, and the i that uppercases wrongly without lang.
