From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   kerning
  
      The process of reducing the spacing between certain
      pairs of letters to improve their appearance.   When a {font}
      is created, each {character} is given a width that includes
      some space around it so that the letters don't run into each
      other when displayed or printed.   This can be thought of as an
      invisible box around each character.   Some pairs of characters
      such as A and V, look better if the boxes overlap slightly,
      bringing the characters closer together (but still not
      touching).
  
      See also {tracking}, {leading}.
