This refers to the standard rules to be considered in printing the letters particularly on the
following:
1. Upper Case letters. They are letters which are printed in capital form.
Three guidelines are cap line, waist line, and base line.
2. Lower Case Letters. These are the letters which are printed in small letters printed
with the use of four guidelines such as cap line, waist line, base line, and dropped line.
COMPRESSED
2. Extended. This proportion is applied when there is a more space. The width of the
letter is wider than the height.
Example:
3. Normal. This proportion is applied when there is normal space. The letter is printed
in the normal size.
Example:
NORMAL
The Two Proportion of Thickness
1. Boldface. This refers to the letters which are printed with heavy stem.
Example:
BOLDFACE
2. Lightface. This refers to the letters which are printed with thin stem.
Example:

The first letters that should be studied are I, L, T, F, E, H. These letters are the
easiest to draw because the basic strokes are vertical and horizontal.
You should practice making these letters according to the models.
The next group P, R, B, U and J requires close study because of the introduction of
the curved line aside from the three already given.
The last group of letters is C, G, O, Q, D and S which are based on the circle.
The M and W must be printed wider than the other letters. It is suggested therefore that its
width should be greater than the other letters by 25 percent. The letter I is the thinnest
letter.
Making Numerals
All mechanical drawings involve the use of numerals, hence, they should be studied
closely. Notice that in the figures below are all 6 units and 5 units wide except 1. All figures
are composed of the essential strokes found in the letters which are straight and curved.
See Figure 1.1
