Making OpenType fonts with free software
Bednár, Peter ; Mekyska, Jiří (oponent) ; Rajmic, Pavel (vedoucí práce)
In thesis themes of typography and computer font of OpenType format is described in details. At the beginning attention is paid to historical development of typeface, where stress is laid mainly on development of Roman and white letter with their characteristics. Having presented basis of typography work is concentrated on topic of digital font with emphasis on possibilities of OpenType format. Further its characteristics and advantages were listed compared to another formats and it was evaluated as format appropriate also for creating font in education process. Letterspacing and kerning were mentioned between basic graphical modifications in creating fonts. In theoretical part of the thesis they were examined in available programs designed for creating font in OpenType format. Except free available means into summary were included also commercial types due to absence of more advanced instruments and functions with free available applications. In evaluation was found that the most convenient for education is Fontlab Fontographer commercial program, free Type lite and Fontforge indicated for Open-source platform. Practical part of the thesis is focused on two chosen programs for creating main font characteristics. The goal was to detect if it is possible to reach identical results when using both programs. Fontographer program enabled to use wide tool palette dedicated to vector graphic processing by means of Adobe Illustrator similar instrument. In the case of Type lite program there were rather less instruments, what is sufficient for elementary work and familiarization with creating of digital typeface. Freeware shortage is basic absence of kerning, spacing or hinting functions. Comparing program possibilities, it falls that freeware programs based on OS Windows with their functionality are sufficient only for entry level users. The best option within free available programs is Fontforge for OS Linux which supports mentioned typographic functions. Fontographer was recommended for teaching of basic characteristics of OpenType font format. Another goal of the thesis was creating of recommended work procedure for creating basic characteristics of OpenType font for students, that is enclosed at the end of the thesis.

Porovnání lanových technik výstupu do koruny stromů
Bartoň, Karel
Bakalářská práce se zaměřuje na metody výstupu do koruny stromu na jednoduchém laně pomocí prusíku s přídavným třením a výstup po laně pomocí blokantů. Práce porovnává způsoby výstupu do korun stromů, pohyb v nich a také bezpečný sestup na zem. Použité metody jsou vyhodnoceny z hlediska ergonomie, rychlosti, efektivity a požadavků fyzických nároků na stromolezce. V literárním přehledu jsou obě techniky popsány. Taktéž je uvedeno použité vybavení, včetně fotografií. V metodice jsou zpracována data z terénního měření, kde je zaznamenáván čas výstupu, saturace kyslíku v krvi a tepová frekvence stromolezců. Data jsou získána přenosným pulsním oxymetrem. Následným zpracováním je dopočítána energetická náročnost jednotlivých metod. Ergonomie je hodnocena na základě checklistu pro hodnocení ergonomického rizika.
