It's fun to play with words and letters and their font and spacing to make our designs look striking but our experiments also run the risk of going wrong. The spacing between letters or characters in a piece of text to be printed is known as kerning. Kerning space is adjusted to make the text look visually appealing and balanced. But, as with most things, mistakes can occur and when letters, words or symbols are placed too close or too far, the typography becomes awkward and even humorous. The Facebook group 'The Real Crime Is That Kerning' holds proof of such epic kerning fails and we have shortlisted the 25 funniest fails for you.
