Kerning
In typography, kerning (less commonly mortising) is the process of adjusting the spacing between characters in a proportional font, usually to achieve a visually pleasing result. Kerning adjusts the space between individual letter forms, while tracking (letter-spacing) adjusts spacing uniformly over a range of characters. In a well-kerned font, the two-dimensional blank spaces between each pair of characters all have a visually similar area.
The related term kern denotes a part of a type letter that overhangs the edge of the type block.
Metal typesetting
The source of the word kern is from the French word carne, meaning "projecting angle, quill of a pen". The French term originated from the Latin cardo, cardinis, meaning "hinge". In the days when all type was cast metal, parts of a sort that needed to overlap adjacent letters simply hung off the edge of the sort slug. The bit of metal that hung over the edge was called a kern. At that time, the word "kerning" only referred to manufacturing the sorts with kerns, while adjusting space between letters during compositing was called inter-spacing or letter spacing.

History
KERN signed on the air at the 1370 AM frequency in 1932. It moved to 1410 in 1941 as the result of the NARBA agreement. In the 1970s programming consisted of Top 40 music from the 1950s through the 1970s. Johnny Mitchell, Program Director and Phil Drake, Music Director took this fledgling station to a solid number one in 1973, soundly crushing its competitor, KAFY 550 AM, from its throne. In the early 70s the station was a popular choice for Top 40 music in Bakersfield. It was also among the first stations to carry "American Top 40 with Casey Kasem" beginning on July 4, 1970. It switched to talk in the late 70's when FM became the standard band for music. Emmy Award winning writer Ken Levine (known as Ken Stevens) got his start in radio at KERN in 1971.
