KERN Full Forms

  1. Kerning Kerning refers to the spacing between the characters of a font. Without kerning, each character takes up a block of space and the next character is printed after it. When kerning is applied to a font, the characters can vertically overlap. This does not mean that the characters actually touch, but instead it allows part of two characters to take up the same vertical space. For example, when the characters A and V are placed next to each other, they can take up less total space if they overlap.
