In typography, cap height refers to the height of the uppercase letters (capital letters) in a typeface. Specifically, it is measured from the baseline (the line upon which most text sits) to the topmost point of flat uppercase letters, excluding any ascenders or diacritics. For example, in the letter "H," the cap height would be the distance from the baseline to the top of the "H."
Cap height is an important aspect of type design as it helps to establish the visual consistency and proportion of typefaces. Different typefaces can have different cap heights even if they are designed to be used at the same point size, leading to variations in overall appearance and legibility. Understanding cap height can help designers choose typefaces that will work well together and create a harmonious visual hierarchy in their designs.
