The construction agency expected the lower podium to reach a capped height of 7 stories by September 2012.

The mean line or midline is half the distance from the baseline to the cap height.

The height of the capital letters is referred to as Cap height.

In addition, cap heights and x-heights are the same.

That might not have been the implication, for small caps are usually sixty per cent of cap height (though there is no standard).

The ratio between the x-height and the ascent or cap height often serves to characterize typefaces.

In typography, cap height refers to the height of a capital letter above the baseline for a particular typeface.

Up to 26 lines in cap height and made from single blocks of end-grain boxwood, they were intended as eye-catching elements for printed posters.

For fonts within a specific font weight, caps height, x-height, ascender and descender heights are the same.

The distance from the baseline to the top of the ascent or a regular uppercase glyphs (cap line) is also known as the cap height.

Font-wide metrics include cap height, x-height, ascender height, descender depth, and the font bounding box.

Particular attention should be paid to the cap height, x-height, and baseline, so that the font retains its normal character while not producing exaggerated effects at small sizes.

Due to the popularity of using these characters to make fractions, most modern fonts render most or all of these as cap height superscripts and baseline subscripts.

England's tallest tower mill is the nine-storeyed Moulton Windmill in Moulton, Lincolnshire, with a cap height of 97.5 ft / 30 metres.

This enabled an exact definition of details such as the amount of overshoot of round characters (e.g. C, G and O) below the baseline and above the cap height.

Note that Aicher's font sizes are based on the DIN standard then in development, which uses the H-height, whereas in lead typesetting the larger cap height was used.

It is worth noting that, although font editing was pixel-based, character outlines were vectorized in software, thus allowing continuous scaling of any character up to 72 point / 18 mm cap height.

Formally, it is the degree to which capital letters go below the baseline or above the cap height, or to which a lowercase letter goes below the baseline or above the x-height.

The hallmark of effective TrueType glyph programming techniques is that it does as much as possible using variables defined just once in the whole font (e.g., stem widths, cap height, x-height).

The sun had yet to break over the mountains to the east, but the tops of the mountains to the north and west were already aglow, bathed in a radiant pink that glimmered off the snow capped heights.

The uncial letters were a consistent height between the baseline and the cap height, while the minuscule letters had ascenders and descenders that moved past the baseline and cap height.

The glyph shown in current official code charts stands on the baseline and has an ascender slightly higher than cap height, but its stem has no serifs and is slightly curved leftwards like the descender of an ρ or β.
