Discussion

Harry Borsje Mar 8, 2008:
My thought (from the typolexicon website) was, with Liesl, rather 'start/end of curves' like you have in the letter 'p'. IMO the example there says the line thickness of curves slightly decreases near the ends

Page 54 of this document deals with the issue (but in German) http://opus.bibliothek.fh-aachen.de/opus/volltexte/2006/169/...
LP Schumacher Mar 8, 2008:
I've been looking for awhile and came to the same conclusion that you've mentioned here. I couldn't find a common term for it, though (apart from "start of curve" or similar).

Bogeneinläufe The context is Serifs. What I think is meant is the curve of the Serif, the "curve opening" for the individual letters.

curved transitions

Just a semi-wild guess. Some serifs have a curve between the stem of the letter and the serif, while others do not.

Matt,

You might check with your author to verify that he/she means "geschweifte Serifenübergänge" or similar.
