Subfamilies
  • Standard Light S
    There are many different standards in many fields of daily life. Standards are important so that correct comparisons can be produced.
  • Standard Light M
    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 Light L
    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 Light S 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 Light M Oblique
    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 Light L Oblique
    ANSI accredits standards that are developed by representatives of other standards organizations, government agencies, consumer groups, companies, and others.
  • Standard Regular S
    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 Regular M
    Communication protocols such as Morse code and USB are standards that allow different machines and people to communicate.
  • Standard Regular L
    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 Regular S Oblique
    A standard guide is general information or options that do not require a specific course of action. A standard definition is formally established terminology.
  • Standard Regular M Oblique
    Technical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
  • Standard Regular L Oblique
    Other standards make things work together. For example, rail cars with a standard gauge can run on tracks that follow the same standard.
  • Standard Medium S
    The ANSI/APSP (Association of Pool & Spa Professionals) standards used for pools, spas, hot tubs, barriers, and suction entrapment avoidance.
  • Standard Medium M
    AutoCAD DXF, an ASCII format for import and export of CAD drawings and fragments in the 1980s and 1990s. In the 2000s, XML based standards emerged as de facto standards.
  • Standard Medium L
    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 Medium S Oblique
    A technical standard may be developed privately or unilaterally, for example by a corporation, regulatory body, military, etc. Standards can also be developed by groups such as trade unions and trade associations.
  • Standard Medium M Oblique
    Other standards make things work together. For example, rail cars with a standard gauge can run on tracks that follow the same standard.
  • Standard Medium L Oblique
    Technical standards may exist as published documents available for purchase or private documents owned by an organization or corporation, used and circulated as the owner determines necessary or useful
  • Standard Semibold S
    Technical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
  • Standard Semibold M
    A standard test method describes a definitive procedure that produces a test result. It may involve making a careful personal observation or conducting a highly technical measurement.
  • Standard Semibold L
    A standard is a basis for comparison. Standards are made either by many people that agree on something, or if some organisation makes it so.
  • Standard Semibold S Oblique
    AutoCAD DXF, an ASCII format for import and export of CAD drawings and fragments in the 1980s and 1990s. In the 2000s, XML based standards emerged as de facto standards.
  • Standard Semibold M Oblique
    GPIB, multi-device bus protocol, mechanical and electronic interface commonly found in electronic test equipment, e.g. digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, etc. Initially created by Hewlett Hewlett-Packard as HP-IP. Commonly used with SCPI protocol.
  • Standard Semibold L 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 Bold S
    The ANSI/APSP (Association of Pool & Spa Professionals) standards used for pools, spas, hot tubs, barriers, and suction entrapment avoidance.
  • Standard Bold M
    Technical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
  • Standard Bold L
    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 Bold S Oblique
    Standards organizations often have more diverse input and usually develop voluntary standards: these might become mandatory if adopted by a government (i.e., through legislation), business contract, etc.
  • Standard Bold M Oblique
    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 Bold L 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 Heavy S
    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 Heavy M
    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 Heavy L
    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 Heavy S Oblique
    A standard guide is general information or options that do not require a specific course of action. A standard definition is formally established terminology.
  • Standard Heavy M Oblique
    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 Heavy L Oblique
    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 Black S
    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 Black M
    Technical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
  • Standard Black L
    Technical standards may exist as public documents on the internet, public library, etc. Some technical standards may be found at a major central library or at the library of a good technical university
  • Standard Black S Oblique
    A technical standard may be developed privately or unilaterally, for example by a corporation, regulatory body, military, etc. Standards can also be developed by groups such as trade unions and trade associations.
