A Guide to Responsive Breaking Points. Planning, designing, and coding responsive websites can be a daunting task. For every type of mobile device or monitor, you have to accommodate yet another media query. With new phones and tablets hitting the market seemingly every day, it’s just not possible to include them all. When it was our turn to tackle the responsive challenge, we wanted to find a way to accommodate the majority of devices with the simplest code possible.
We can’t code for every unique device – but we can code for each type. We hit the digital “books”, looked at what other sites were doing, sought after the emerging industry standards, and determined that the base breaking points found in the Bootstrap framework were spot on. We love the flexible platform that the framework provides, and currently use it as the base for all of our website designs. Without further ado, here it is! Share this Image On Your Site.

Photo credit: Jeremy Keith, Creative Commons Responsive web design has exploded in popularity — thanks to the need to create sites that work across numerous devices. However, responsive design comes with some problems of its own. The issue of slow-to-load sites is now well documented. Let’s walk through some of the tricks designers are using to better load content and images on different devices.
Media Queries to Call Styles One of these tricks is the use of media queries, which work to call styles to the user device based on its dimensions. Call Using External Stylesheet or in a Stylesheet Like we described in the free e-book Mobile UI Patterns, media queries first check the media type against the user agent string before going on to check for the physical attributes of the viewport.
For example, the external call would look like this: And the CSS direct call would look like this: 1 @media screen and (min-width:320px) 2 and (max-width:480px){ 3/*Insert your styles here As Ryan points out: Creating ePub files with Pages. Creating an ePub Document to read in iBooks You can export any Pages word processing document to the ePub file format for reading in an ePub reader, such as the iBooks app for iOS or Mac.
Documents created in page layout templates can’t be exported to the ePub format. Documents you export to ePub format will look different than their Pages counterparts. If you want to get the best document fidelity between the Pages and ePub formats, style your Pages document with paragraph styles and other formatting attributes allowed in an ePub file. A sample document is provided below that features styles and guidelines to help you create a Pages document that’s optimized for export to the ePub file format, which you can use as a template or a guide. To learn more about using paragraph styles in Pages, see the topics under the heading “Working with Styles” in the Help menu in Pages.

Pour fêter ma présence sur ce blog — youloulou, foule en liesse! — je vous propose de dézinguer un mythe du petit monde de l’informatique et du graphisme. Ce mythe dans sa plus simple expression: Le print c’est en 300 dpi, et pis le web c’est en 72 dpi. Et donc, ça c’est faux. Le Web n’est pas en 72 dpi (ou ppi ou pixels par pouce), et il n’est pas non plus en 96 dpi. Le Web n’a pas de résolution fixe, car chaque périphérique d’affichage a une densité de pixels qui lui est propre, et il n’y a pas de standard en la matière.
J’y reviendrai avec quelques exemples, mais avant ça on va expliquer un peu à quoi correspondent ces fameux pixels par pouce. Densité des pixels d’un écran: à vos calculettes! Petit exercice pratique: nous allons calculer ensemble la densité de pixels d’un écran. Sur cet écran, 1 mm correspond à un peu moins de 4 pixels.On aura un résultat différent sur d’autres écrans.

Une media query (ou requête média) consiste en un type de média, et au moins une expression limitant la portée des déclarations CSS, en mettant à profit les particularités des supports multimédias comme leur largeur, leur hauteur ou leur affichage des couleurs.
Ajouté dans CSS3, les media queries permettent d'adapter la présentation du contenu à une large gamme d'appareils sans changer le contenu lui-même. Syntaxe Les requêtes de média sont formées d'un type de média, et peuvent, d'après la spécification CSS3, contenir une ou plusieurs expressions, traitant des fonctionnalités du média, qui sont interprétées comme vraies ou fausses. Le résultat de la requête est vrai si le type de média indiqué correspond au type de périphérique sur lequel le document est affiché et que toutes les expressions dans la requête sont vraies. Lorsqu'une media query est vraie, la feuille de style ou les règles correspondantes sont appliquées selon les règles normales de la cascade.
