Summary

Description
English: A diagram of how bold fonts are designed. Normally, it is by increasing the contrast, making the thick strokes much bolder while the narrow strokes and joins such as on an 'n' only get slightly bolder. Helvetica's 'e' has a monoline construction, so on it all strokes get bolder. (The font used for the captions is Matthew Butterick's Concourse, incidentally.)
