Font

A fonts is the particular size, weight and style of a typeface. Operating systems based on Linux handle fonts by the fontconfig package.

Typefaces

Typefaces or font families can be roughly divided into the following styles:

  • Serif typefaces use serifs - the small feature at the end of the strokes within letters.
  • Sans-serif typefaces do not use serifs.
  • Monospace typefaces are typefaces with all glyphs having the same width.

Depending on the usage and definition japanese, chinese and korean fonts can be seen as a separate style.
