Typography is the art and technique of arranging type in order to make language visible. The arrangement of type involves the selection of typefaces, point size, line length, line spacing. I have researched how to do all the techniques involved in Typography, shown below...
Ligatures: The combining of two letters in a fancy way, such as the letters fi on the Ribbon.
Stylistic Set: Select some text, then click this pop-up menu. If your font supports this feature, you can choose a style
Number Spacing: Select some numbers and choose default, proportional, or tabular.
Number Forms: Select numbers and choose default, lining, or old style. Old style is supported by many fonts.
Contextual Alternatives: When selected, displays alternative font styles based on the sentence context. Your best bet is to select text and select this check box to see what happens.
Kerning: When selected, applies kerning. By default, a font must be at least 72 points or larger for this feature to work.
Scale: Adjust using the spinner control. This option makes characters fatter or thinner.
Spacing: Choose normal, expanded, or condensed, and number of points. This option adds or removes space between characters.
Position: Choose normal, raised, or lowered, and by how many points. This can be a way to control how much subscript or superscript to apply to text.
Kerning: Choose on or off and set the minimum number of points. Your font must support kerning to see any effect when this feature is applied.
Advanced Typography: These controls duplicate the controls found when you use the Typography group in the Ribbon
