Slanting or a variation from horizontal or vertical.
At an angle to both the vertical and the horizontal.
Neither perpendicular nor horizontal. A slanting direction; not direct.
Similar to italic type, oblique type is usually a sans serif font that has been slanted or tilted approximately 12 degrees and then adjusted to improve the appearance.
Slanting; between horizontal and vertical in direction.
Sloping, having unequal sides (leaves).
( mathematics) Designating geometric lines or planes that are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
a. (L. obliquus, slanting) slanting; unequal-sided.
A font that is slanted. Oblique fonts are different from Italic fonts, in that they are just sheared, then slightly adjusted. Italic fonts, on the other hand, are designed differently from upright or roman versions. They are usually narrower than their roman counterparts, and reflect more of a calligraphic sensibility than Oblique fonts.
A slanted character, the sans serif equivalent to italics.
Term used for typefaces that slope forwards. Such fonts usually serve as a substitute for a non-existent italic version of the typeface in question.
Slanting in any direction between vertical and horizontal.
adjective, Latin obliquus; slanting, or deviating from the perpendicular or the horizontal.
slanting; any direction between perpendicular and horizontal
a chisel-like nib with a tip that angles back at its left; confusingly, also sometimes called a "right oblique" ctanium Parker's silvery, nontarnishing alloy used in its non-gold nibs of the '50s
to deviate from the perpendicular, slanting.
slanting or inclined in direction or course or position--neither parallel nor perpendicular nor right-angular; "the oblique rays of the winter sun"; "acute and obtuse angles are oblique angles"; "the axis of an oblique cone is not perpendicular to its base"
altered type to resemble italic; used by GTS in families that have no designed italic font or whose italic we do not have.
In typography, an alternate term for italic, or a term descriptive of a right-leaning change in the posture of the characters in a particular typeface.
Although the most common nibs end in a round point of various sizes (fine, medium, broad), other nib shapes are available. Examples for this are oblique and reverse oblique.
Any view that is not straight down or not horizontal (level). Generally, any view that is more that 10 degrees off vertical or horizontal. Typically a view looking down at 35 to 55 degrees below the horizon.
Unequal-sided or slanting.
Literally, "at an angle" or "slanted". A Roman font that has been electronically altered to produce an italic effect.
Slanting away from horizontal or perpendicular
A text style created by slanting a roman font to simulate italics. This is not a true typeface, to print properly it needs to be converted to outline art.
Slanting or sloping. An oblique font is one which is slanted to the right. Italic fonts are generally both oblique and more calligraphic than upright or Roman fonts. "Italic" implies oblique, while the reverse is not true.
Not parallel or perpendicular. Not having a right angle.
A slanting version of a face. Oblique is similar to italic, but without the script quality of a true italic. The upright faces are usually referred to as roman.
A right slanted version of a Roman typeface without changes to the letter's design. Often confused with Italic.
The characteristic of a type face which has been skewed from a digitised character, thus looking like an italic typeface. The angle of skew is either 12° or 15°.
A slanted type design, following the letter shapes of the roman variation, as opposed to italic, which is also cursive.
Slanting away from the vertical, used primarily for flower scapes
a plane or section not perpendicular to the xyz coordinate system, such as long and short axis views of the heart.
characterized by an angle which is not a right angle
A slanted style of a font, generally used for emphasis. Oblique differs from Italic in that the transformation from the plain to the slanted form involves just skewing the letterforms.
A slanted font of the Roman interation of the font to top
Lines or planes are oblique when they are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other.
A plane that passes through the body or an organ at an angle between the transverse plane an either the midsagittal, parasagittal, or frontal plane.
An image taken with a camera or sensor with the axis intentionally directed between the vertical and horizontal planes. A high oblique image includes the horizon in the field of view while a low oblique shows only the Earth's surface.
1. An angle; neither parallel or perpendicular. 2. Not symmetrical with its base.
Not perpendicular or parallel to the body axis; usually used to describe a slanted, lateral mark on abdominal segments, such as in many caterpillars in the Sphingidae.
Describing motion that is a combination of movement both perpendicular and parallel to the strike of a fault -- a combination of strike-slip and dip-slip (whether normal or reverse).View an animation of Oblique Slip.
(adj.) A direction that is neither parallel nor perpendicular to a plane.
A map projection in which the centerline of the map is not at right angles to the earth’s geographic coordinates, following neither a single parallel nor a meridian.
Sloped roman version of a typeface, often used in place of a true italic version.
Slanting; Of unequal sides.
