Subfamilies
  • Standard S Light
    Microsoft has repeatedly internally changed the file specification between versions of Word to suit their own needs, while continuing to reuse the same file extension identifier for different versions.
  • Standard M Light
    There are many examples of de facto consolidation of a standard by market forces and competition, in a two-sided market, after a dispute, for example with VHS and Betamax in the videotape format war.
  • Standard L Light
    In social sciences, including economics, a standard is useful if it is a solution to a coordination problem: it emerges from situations in which all parties realize mutual gains, but only by making mutually consistent decisions.
  • Standard S Light Oblique
    In 1928, the AESC became the American Standards Association (ASA). In 1966, the ASA was reorganized and became United States of America Standards Institute (USASI). The present name was adopted in 1969.
  • Standard M Light Oblique
    The MP3 audio format started as an alternative to WAV for internet music distribution, then replaced it. It is now supported by the vast majority of music players, audio transport, audio storage, and non-commercial media.
  • Standard L Light Oblique
    ANSI was most likely formed in 1918, when five engineering societies and three government agencies founded the American Engineering Standards Committee (AESC).
  • Standard S Regular
    The existence of a published standard does not imply that it is always useful or correct. For example, if an item complies with a certain standard, there is not necessarily assurance that it is fit for any particular use.
  • Standard M Regular
    USB for high speed serial interface in computers and for powering or charging low power external devices (like mobile phones, headphones, portable hard drives) usually using micro USB plug and socket.
  • Standard L Regular
    PCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
  • Standard S Regular Oblique
    Not all technical standards are created equal. In the development of a technical standard, private standards adopt a non-consensus process in comparison to voluntary consensus standards.
  • Standard M Regular Oblique
    Microsoft has repeatedly internally changed the file specification between versions of Word to suit their own needs, while continuing to reuse the same file extension identifier for different versions.
  • Standard L Regular Oblique
    In social sciences a voluntary standard that is also a de facto standard is a typical solution to a coordination problem. The choice of a de facto standard tends to be stable in situations in which all parties can realize mutual gains, but only by making mutually consistent decisions. In contrast, an enforced de jure standard is a solution to the prisoner's problem.
  • Standard S Medium
    Microsoft has repeatedly internally changed the file specification between versions of Word to suit their own needs, while continuing to reuse the same file extension identifier for different versions.
  • Standard M Medium
    Use of programming languages R and Python in science and engineering disciplines, other than computer science, where automated analysis of data is required, while remaining simple enough for a non-professional.
  • Standard L Medium
    For example, a physical property of a material is often affected by the precise method of testing: any reference to the property should therefore reference the test method used.
  • Standard S Medium Oblique
    Not all technical standards are created equal. In the development of a technical standard, private standards adopt a non-consensus process in comparison to voluntary consensus standards.
  • Standard M Medium Oblique
    Phone connector (3.5 mm jack), RCA and XLR connectors, used in the audio industry for connecting audio equipment such as headphones, mixing desks, microphones, stage lighting, etc.
  • Standard L Medium Oblique
    International standards is one way of overcoming technical barriers in inter-local or inter-regional commerce caused by differences among technical regulations and standards developed independently and separately by each local, local standards organisation, or local company.
  • Standard S Semibold
    2.54 mm (0.1 inch) pin spacing on many electronic components, including DIP, SIL packages, header connectors, and many more. The standard spacing enable use of these devices in prototyping boards and standardized sockets.
  • Standard M Semibold
    Although ANSI itself does not develop standards, the Institute oversees the development and use of standards by accrediting the procedures of standards developing organizations.
  • Standard L Semibold
    Technical standards are defined as industry standards, also referred to as private standards, which are standards developed in the private sector but not in the full consensus process, typically requiring a financial contribution.
  • Standard S Semibold Oblique
    According to Adam Stanton, the first permanent secretary and head of staff in 1919, AESC started as an ambitious program and little else. Staff for the first year consisted of one executive, Clifford B. LePage, who was on loan from a founding member, ASME.
  • Standard M Semibold Oblique
    With the Acrobat Reader program available for free, and continued support of the format, PDF eventually became the de facto standard for printable documents. In 2005, PDF/A became a de jure standard as ISO 19005-1:2005.[4] In 2008 Adobe's PDF 1.7 became ISO 32000-1:2008.
  • Standard L Semibold Oblique
    The MP3 audio format started as an alternative to WAV for internet music distribution, then replaced it. It is now supported by the vast majority of music players, audio transport, audio storage, and non-commercial media.
  • Standard S Bold
    Standards often get reviewed, revised and updated on a regular basis. It is critical that the most current version of a published standard be used or referenced.
  • Standard M Bold
    The IBM Personal Computer: by one year after its 1981 release, John Dvorak described the PC as rapidly becoming a de facto standard microcomputer. With the MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows operating systems, it gained a large share of the personal computer market.
  • Standard L Bold
    Use of programming languages R and Python in science and engineering disciplines, other than computer science, where automated analysis of data is required, while remaining simple enough for a non-professional.
  • Standard S Bold Oblique
    These standards ensure that the characteristics and performance of products are consistent, that people use the same definitions and terms, and that products are tested the same way.
  • Standard M Bold Oblique
    Microsoft has repeatedly internally changed the file specification between versions of Word to suit their own needs, while continuing to reuse the same file extension identifier for different versions.
  • Standard L Bold Oblique
    A standard specification is an explicit set of requirements for an item, material, component, system or service. It is often used to formalize the technical aspects of a procurement agreement or contract.
  • Standard S Heavy

    Microsoft has repeatedly internally changed the file specification between versions of Word to suit their own needs, while continuing to reuse the same file extension identifier for different versions.
  • Standard L Heavy
    Technical barriers arise when different groups come together, each with a large user base, doing some well established thing that between them is mutually incompatible.
  • Standard S Heavy Oblique
    Private standards typically require a financial contribution in terms of an annual fee from the organizations who adopt the standard. Corporations are encouraged to join the board of governance of the standard owner.
  • Standard M Heavy Oblique
    A de facto standard is a custom or convention that is commonly used even though its use is not required. De facto is a Latin phrase meaning in practice but not necessarily ordained by law, or in practice or actuality, but not officially established.
  • Standard L Heavy Oblique
    The people who use the item or service (engineers, trade unions, etc.) or specify it (building codes, government, industry, etc.) have the responsibility to consider the available standards, specify the correct one, enforce compliance, and use the item correctly.
  • Standard S Black
    TeX typesetting system, commonly used in creating scientific articles and reports for publication (in fact many journals require the publication to be fully written in TeX)
  • Standard M Black
