1. Book layout and components
The book layout is the carrying page of the content of the book; the specifications and composition of the layout of the book are relevant to the format of the book and the content of the book.
(1) Book layout definition
The layout of the book, ie the page of the book page, the area of the book, ie the area of the book (print book), and the specifications of the area of the book are the same as the specifications of the book.
Such as: 16 open books, layout specifications for 185 × 260.
32 books with layout specifications of 130×185.
(2) Composition of Book Layout
Edition heart
It is the part of the book layout that bears the content of the book; it is one of the constituent elements of the layout; it is the main body of the layout content. When people read books, they always see double-sided. This is exactly the similarities between book design and single-sided advertisements and posters. This is also a problem that should be noticed in book design.
Zhou Kong
It is an empty space around the heart of the regular edition of the book; it is an indispensable element of the book layout. White edges help to read, avoid layout disturbances, help stabilize the line of sight, and help turn pages.
The name of Zhou Kong: Shang Baibian - Tiantou; Xiabaibian - footer;
About the white edge - set mouth, incision.
If Zhoukong is too big, the layout is reduced and the volume of words is small, which means that it is not economical and it is also too flashy. If Zhoukong is too small, it will cause readers to feel cramped and embarrassed when reading, which is detrimental to the appearance of the layout and is easy to print and bound. An accident occurred; so the size of the week is very important in book design.
2, book version of the heart and font size
The edition is also known as the “port”, which is the part of the rules that accommodates text charts on the pages of the book.
(1) Edition heart area and position
The edition of the heart area is the edition of the heart, which is expressed in terms of the width of the printing plate and the height of the printing plate. If the text or chart exceeds the edition of the heart, it will be called "super heart."
Heart width
1 The length of the line of sight affecting eyesight
The length of a small fifth character exceeds 90mm. The length of the fifth character is more than 110mm.
2 The current length of the book line
The size of the length of 32 large books is: the fifth character, 27 to 29 characters/line, about 100 to 108 mm.
32 The length of the book book line: the fifth character, 25 to 27 characters/line, about 92 to 100 mm. Small 5, 29 to 31 characters/line, approximately 92 to 98 mm.
16 The length of the book book line: No. 5 words, 38 to 40 words/line, about 146 to 150 mm. Small No. 5, 48 to 50 characters/line, about 150 to 156 mm.
The length of the 16-character line has obviously exceeded the range of moderate vision. Therefore, in addition to individual books even use the fifth row single row, most of them use double row.
The position of the layout in the layout
1 straight typeset version of the heart position: lower right or center.
Reasons: Tiantou (upper white edge) is relatively stretched and can be annotated; when double-sided, the white border is relatively small.
2 horizontal layout type heart position: upper left or center.
Reason: The edition of the heart does not count the page number, such as the upper and lower center of the edition, the heart of the vision version falls.
The white side of the theoretical book can be large enough to allow the reader to write and comment on the blank space. Scientific and technical books have a small number of publications, few readers, and costs. The white edge should be kept small. Pocketbooks, dictionaries, informational brochures, and cheap books also make use of paper as much as possible. The white margin should also be kept small, at least 10 mm in width. Hardcover and commemorative collections use a wider white border, which also enhances the preciousness and style of the book. Judging from the harmony of the layout, the width of the layout is also the width of the layout of the layout, the white side to be correspondingly wider, on the contrary, close to the narrower. In addition, thick books should pay attention to the weakening effect caused by the white side due to the arc shape, and should be widened accordingly, not to make the heart of the plate indented into the ridge of the mouth, at least not having to use your hands to see the innermost part. Text.
