Subfamilies
  • Standard Light S
    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
    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 Light L
    A technical standard is an established norm or requirement for a repeatable technical task which is applied to a common and repeated use of rules, conditions, guidelines or characteristics for products or related processes and production methods, and related management systems practices.
  • Standard Light S Oblique
    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 Light M Oblique
    Voluntary consensus standards quicken the market acceptance of products while making clear how to improve the safety of those products for the protection of consumers.
  • Standard Light L 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 S
    When a geographically defined community must solve a community-wide coordination problem, it can adopt an existing standard or produce a new one.
  • Standard Regular M
    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 Regular L
    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 S 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 Regular M Oblique
    PCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
  • Standard Regular L Oblique
    DMX512 (commonly just DMX) with XLR connector to control and sometimes power stage and venue lights, effects, smoke machines, laser projectors, and pyrotechnics.
  • Standard Medium S
    PDF was first created in 1993 by Adobe. Adobe internal standards were part of its software quality systems, but they were neither published nor coordinated by a standards body.
  • Standard Medium M
    In contrast, a custom, convention, company product, corporate standard, and so forth that becomes generally accepted and dominant is often called a de facto standard.
  • Standard Medium L
    Programming languages that have multiple implementations such as PHP tend to also have a de facto standard. In PHP's case the de facto standard is the binaries available from php.net, rather than the Phalanger implementation.
  • Standard Medium S 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 Medium M Oblique
    Programming languages that have multiple implementations such as PHP tend to also have a de facto standard. In PHP's case the de facto standard is the binaries available from php.net, rather than the Phalanger implementation.
  • Standard Medium L Oblique
    BNC for medium frequency signal in electronic engineering testing (commonly used by signal generators, oscilloscopes, multimeters, etc.) and sometimes in video signal delivery between devices in studios and other professional settings.
  • Standard Semibold S
    Other standards make things work together. For example, rail cars with a standard gauge can run on tracks that follow the same standard.
  • Standard Semibold M
    Programming languages that have multiple implementations such as PHP tend to also have a de facto standard. In PHP's case the de facto standard is the binaries available from php.net, rather than the Phalanger implementation.
  • Standard Semibold L
    PCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
  • Standard Semibold S Oblique
    Joint technical committee on information technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) developed a procedure in order for de facto standards to be processed through the formal standardization system to be transformed into international standards from ISO and IEC.
  • Standard Semibold M 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 Semibold L Oblique
    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 Bold S
    Technical standards are defined as voluntary consensus standards, which are standards developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies, domestic (national), regional and international.
  • Standard Bold M
    Other standards make things work together. For example, rail cars with a standard gauge can run on tracks that follow the same standard.
  • 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
    Technical standards may exist as closed or controlled documents that contain trade secrets or classified information
  • Standard Bold M 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 Bold L Oblique
    Technical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
  • Standard Heavy S
    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 Heavy M
    A technical standard is an established norm or requirement for a repeatable technical task which is applied to a common and repeated use of rules, conditions, guidelines or characteristics for products or related processes and production methods, and related management systems practices.
  • Standard Heavy L
    PCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
  • Standard Heavy S 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 Heavy M Oblique
    Because of the great influence of the IBM PC on the personal computer market, competing products like the Rainbow 100 were eventually withdrawn.
  • Standard Heavy 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 Black S
    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 Black M
    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 Black L
    BNC for medium frequency signal in electronic engineering testing (commonly used by signal generators, oscilloscopes, multimeters, etc.) and sometimes in video signal delivery between devices in studios and other professional settings.
  • Standard Black S 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 M Oblique
    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 Black L 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.
