Description
A lettering rule can be checked once its applicable minimum height has been established.
A lettering rule can be checked once its applicable minimum height has been established.1
The signed margin shows how far the measured height sits above or below that caller-selected requirement.
When to use Letter Height Minimum Rule Checker
Use this tool to apply the stated letter height minimum rule checker operation with an explicit input and unit basis.
How to use Letter Height Minimum Rule Checker and how it works
- Establish the measurement basis and units described above.
- Enter actualObservedLetterHeight, callerIndependentRequiredLetterHeight and run the tool.
- Read result.signedLetterHeightMargin, result.meetsCallerMinimumHeight using the output meanings below.
- If input is rejected, correct the stated type, range, ordering or alignment issue and rerun; review successful results under the declared convention.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| actualObservedLetterHeight | Observed letter height, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | number | required; finite; nonnegative; further conditions in the algorithm |
| callerIndependentRequiredLetterHeight | Required letter height, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | number | required; finite; strictly positive; further conditions in the algorithm |
Require nonnegative observed height and positive required height in matching units. Subtract required from observed; equality meets the minimum.
margin = observed − required; meets = observed ≥ required Apply the declared units, ordering and branch conditions.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Object containing the declared output fields. | object |
| result.signedLetterHeightMargin | Observed minus required height in matching length units. | number |
| result.meetsCallerMinimumHeight | True when observed height is at least the supplied minimum. | boolean |

}Limitations and assumptions
The output applies the declared operation to the values you supply. Establish the measurement basis, units, coefficients and any caller-selected rules before interpreting it. The tool does not independently collect or verify observations or decide whether a model or reference applies.
Supply explicit required fields with the documented types and dense aligned arrays. Unknown fields, wrong types and nonfinite numbers are rejected. Branch-specific constraints are explained above. A successful false boolean, negative signed difference, empty slice or unresolved tie is distinct from an input error. Very large inputs or outputs may be rejected by shared resource limits.
