Me and my friend learned wingdings and we printed out common words like “Yes” and “Funny” and we combined them to make sentences and passed them to each other in class, and when we had to read the note out loud, we would just be saying stuff like “Mailbox, peace fingers, and arrow.” Funny times.
I made my own alphabet and font... and learned to read it. Now I have the ultimate secret message maker... but I don't know anybody willing to learn it.
Blah I was tempted to do that but it was the first essay of the year and yknow... first impressions... So, I just wrote it in my favorite font that has been that way since I was eight... Comic Sans. "It's a childish font and you should never use it!" Some might say. Here's the surprise: I got a good grade on the essay :P
"Ding" is not only Dutch but also German (same meaning). Since the printing press was invented in Germany it's likely that the word rather comes from the German word than the Dutch.
I once handed in a book report in wingdings as a joke. Somehow my teacher was able to read it and I got 66%. I still have the original non-wingding copy that he has yet to see...
I think a few crucial points are missing from this video, so here's my take: Digital documents typically don't store the graphical representation of each character, they only store character codes, and it's the software's job to take these codes and turn them into displayable characters. Nowadays documents are usually encoded with Unicode, that associates unique codes to every character. This means that regardless of the font you use the same character code will be represented with the same symbol, only its style will be different. But a few decades ago when Unicode wasn't widely supported, document were encoded with specific code pages. Code pages are limited to represent typically 128 or 256 different characters, that didn't leave any room for dingbats. However in rich text documents it is possible to associate different fonts to different sections of text. Wingdings is essentially a trick that associates completely different symbols to the codes that represent normal characters in the code page, which means you can use normal characters and dingbats in the same document.
Thank you for this. I tried looking this up 15 years ago and found nothing online. You've just answered a mystery that I always forget about when I'm able to look for, one that kept me awake some nights as a kid. I'm surprised that I didn't become obsessed with it. My curiosity did inspire me to learn calligraphy and fueled my obsession with lettering and fonts. I would probably read a book about the history of the main fonts.

Michel Armando Salas Maldonado If the word dingbat comes from "Ding" as "thing" it's more likely that it comes from Germany. Because because "Ding" also means "thing" in German and printing was invented in Germany.
@@Marvelouse the video is about wingding's and there is a character named "Gaster"(or "W.D Gaster") from undertale who "speak's in hand's"/"wingding" So if you see to much of the undertale fan comment or such just know it's because of him.
im looking though my phone settings seeing if i can change my font to Wingding i couldnt so i went to get fonts online i searched Wingding the first result was Cat Wallpapers
i remember when the only way me and my friends could communicate online was through roblox group chats. one of my friends found a wingding font translator and used that to type messages to us when whatever what we wanted to type was blocked by moderators (yes we were undertale fans which was probably where my friend got the idea from)
I role play Undertale on Roblox and I have never thought of that idea, ever! You’re a genius!!! (Although maybe that’s why I’ve seen other people type in Wingdings which I always found annoying because it needs to be translated, but that’s actually a good reason to use Wingdings!)
Because people are childish and hate each other because they like a particular thing. Undertale fans are often hated on with comments such as "Undertale fans are cringy little kids and they should all go die"
This guy: Dutch word for thing The German language: am I a joke to you? On a more serious note: why Dutch specifically? It _could_ be from the Dutch word, but it could just aswell come from any other language that has 'Ding' in its vocabulary (I checked it and apparently only Dutch and German have that exact spelling of 'Ding' in their language). I might sound a bit salty or whatever (which is not my intention) but it vaguely feels like someone typed 'ding' into google translate's auto detect and used the first language that popped up as a (potential) origin. Another reason why this might be important to note is because Hermann Zapf _is_ German after all so that draws a strong connection towards German and away from Dutch. Anyway, this is extreme nitpicking. The video was nice and informative and I liked it alot.
EDIT: this comment is 5 years old, why is everyone replying now? I'm an Undertale fan (hold your pitchforks), but honestly the Wingdings font always interested me. I was kind of hoping there would be a more interesting (or humorous) reason why the font exists, but this was still cool.
This is what you should stick to, this is where you shine. Not big important issues, not politics, not SJW crap, but small, niche subjects which are surprisingly interesting, covered with clever writing, pretty graphics, a pleasant narration and all of that under 5 minutes.
MALCOLM X NETWORK i just watched some videos and see what you mean. Also, I saw that specific seapunk video, which happened to be filed with inaccuracies andlike 2 years too late to apper "hip".
Back in the day, I find using Symbols easier than using Wingdings since I can scroll through the symbols box instead of blindly guessing which letters correspond to which picture
When I was a kid I used to make my own fun by messing around in MS Word by writing stories and messing around with the formatting. My life changed after I discovered Wingdings, those font game me more hours of entertainment than any video game.
I enjoy Undertale and all but... I only came here because I always wondered what the heck were those odd symbols front in the school computer back when I was in elementary school.
It’s obviously because reading normal fonts like Times new roman is just boo-ring and reading comic sans is fuuun! Also San is a far eastern bro who deserves some respect, especially as he is comic and sooo entertaining.
Me n the lads using Wingdings to cheat on our English tests in middle school. One of us would get the answers, I'd manually type it into Wingdings, then print it out and give it to the other. We never once got caught

Interesting to know, but…this is kinda confusing. 😂 If dingbats were just “ornamental pieces,” what did they have to do with saving time? At 0:42 , by the time the dingbats were added, had there not *already* been a significant amount of time spent on making the “pretty text” on those pages you included? It wasn’t until around 2:15 that a solid connection was made between dingbats and Wingdings-obviously aside from the fact that they pretty much look the same-but even then, it was never implied that dingbats were used as a substitute (like emojis often are), but rather, as a decoration?
I just used the Wingdings font to write things I shouldn’t have in school when I was bored because no one could decode it and forgot the fact that they could change the font. As far as I know, there’s a letter saying ‘hi from 2015, btw under all the chairs there’s unopened packs of gum if you want them’ in the girls 4th bathroom stall.

Nowadays documents are usually encoded with Unicode, that associates unique codes to every character. This means that regardless of the font you use the same character code will be represented with the same symbol, only its style will be different.

When I was a kid I used to make my own fun by messing around in MS Word by writing stories and messing around with the formatting. My life changed after I discovered Wingdings, those font game me more hours of entertainment than any video game.

Welp its the internet.
Why does comic sans exist?
to plague the world with its horrible font

It’s obviously because reading normal fonts like Times new roman is just boo-ring and reading comic sans is fuuun! Also San is a far eastern bro who deserves some respect, especially as he is comic and sooo entertaining.

Me n the lads using Wingdings to cheat on our English tests in middle school. One of us would get the answers, I'd manually type it into Wingdings, then print it out and give it to the other. We never once got caught

Interesting to know, but…this is kinda confusing. 😂 If dingbats were just “ornamental pieces,” what did they have to do with saving time? At 0:42 , by the time the dingbats were added, had there not *already* been a significant amount of time spent on making the “pretty text” on those pages you included? It wasn’t until around 2:15 that a solid connection was made between dingbats and Wingdings-obviously aside from the fact that they pretty much look the same-but even then, it was never implied that dingbats were used as a substitute (like emojis often are), but rather, as a decoration?
We use the word 'dingbat' as another word for idiot here in britain! I was laughing loads!
We say that in America, too. At least in the southeast.
SAME HERE IN AUSTRALIA!
...sometimes.
I am a dingbat.
:(
Oh...this is why I was so confused why it was a font called idiot...
emojis before they were popular. huh. never thought of it that way
Sometimes, this channel answers questions that I never knew I wanted answers to.

Finally...the questions that invade my mind while making a long-overdue paper gets answered
I just used the Wingdings font to write things I shouldn’t have in school when I was bored because no one could decode it and forgot the fact that they could change the font. As far as I know, there’s a letter saying ‘hi from 2015, btw under all the chairs there’s unopened packs of gum if you want them’ in the girls 4th bathroom stall.
My grandma always calls me a dingbat when she's annoyed by me
