            Is kerning the spacing between letters?

              Between any typographical characters, but yeah, basically 🙂

              It’s the visual spacing between letters, which usually involves some letters that have curves or corners to actually not strictly follow the spacing. For example the legs of the letter A might stick out a tiny bit in certain fonts. This gives text a more visually balanced kerning.

        That bottom depiction really makes it obvious that butterflies never have their wings like that

      Didn’t see that coming. In retrospect, I should have noticed that a long time ago… Thanks for the info

      Neat, the alive ones look way more similar to moths.
