Kerning is simple the process of adjusting the spacing between characters in a typeface. It is used to give a visual appealing product or look to the person looking at it. I myself use kerning all the time when making posters or logos for clients to give it the correct look. Kerning is essential to a Graphic Design when using typefaces because usually, depending on what your making, the title of your poster is the first to second thing the viewer sees. You want your typeface to be visually appealing to please not only the client but also the viewer.
Here's a little kerning game online where you can guess where the letters are suppose to go. I got an 86 percent on my first time. See if you can beat my score.
