State whether the following is true or false.
A larger type size in a map's lettering usually indicates a more important or larger place.

  • A.False only at small scales
  • B.True
  • C.False
  • D.True only at large scales

Answer: B

Type size functions exactly as the visual variable of size does elsewhere, encoding a hierarchy among the named places. A capital city is set larger than a town, so the hierarchy is read before any name is actually deciphered.
