Primes¶
- Emphasis
- In AI text generation, emphasis modeling is critical to producing coherent, persuasive, and appropriate outputs — computational models must learn which tokens to weight heavily (emphasized) and which to de-weight (de-emphasized) to produce fluent, task-appropriate language.
This sourceHartley & Marks. Canonical typography reference codifying visual rhythm, hierarchy, and emphasis (bold, italic, scale, spacing) as a design discipline — supports the written-typography emphasis claim.

- Rhythm
- A row of identical columns is periodic; a colonnade that groups columns and varies their spacing has rhythm, and the eye is drawn to the position where the expected interval is broken.
This sourceHartley & Marks. Canonical typography reference: develops visual rhythm as the patterning of repeated elements with deliberate variation in emphasis, spacing, and scale, drawing the eye across a surface and marking the positions where an expected interval is broken.

Mechanisms¶
- Typographic Emphasis
- The discipline is to emphasize the fewest spans that carry the meaning
This sourceRecommends sparse typographic emphasis against a basic text background so contrast remains effective.
