• Look for police formed by a single line

    From marioski@21:1/5 to All on Sat Nov 12 08:28:21 2016
    Hello,

    Most of the polices even simple are trained(formed) by 2 very moved closer parallel lines(features).
    I look for a police trained(formed) by the finest possible single line(feature).

    Thank you for your help(assistant)

    The French word _police_ here means "font" AFAIK.

    I'm afraid I don't understand this. Can you show an example?

    Fonts are created by mathematical functions on curves and straight
    lines. Very few of them use parallel lines. Even the uprights in many
    fonts are not geometrically the same thickness all the way.

    Fonts are redrawn on screen and via PDF at the time of display or print.
    The concept of "finest possible single line" does not really exist
    because it would be different for every platform (thicker on your screen
    with 300dpi than on a printing company's laser platemaker with 5550dpi).

    I think many people reading this speak some French. Perhaps if you
    repost the question in French we can try to understand it.
