Font
• A font is a graphical representation of text
that may include a different typeface, point,
size, weight, color, or design. The picture
shows some examples of different computer
fonts.
• A font is a collection of characters of a single
size and style belonging to a particular
typeface family.

Cont..
• A typeface is a family of graphic characters
that usually includes many type sizes and
styles.
• Type sizes are usually expressed in points; one
point is 0.0138 inch, or about 1/72 of an inch.
• The font’s size is the distance from the top of
the capital letters to the bottom of the
descenders in letters such as g and y.

Cont..
• Users can change the typeface, size, and color
of the font, providing many combinations of
font styles to meet their needs.
• A font’s size does not exactly describe the
height or width of its characters.

TEXT CASES
• In some situations, such as for passwords, a
computer is case sensitive, meaning that the text’s
upper- and lowercase letters must match exactly to
be recognized.
• But nowadays, in most situations requiring keyboard
input, all computers recognize both the upper- and
lowercase forms of a character to be the same.
• In that manner, the computer is said to be case
insensitive.

Choosing Text Fonts
• Use as few different faces as possible in the
same work, but vary the weight and size of
your typeface using italic and bold styles
where they look good. Using too many fonts
on the same page is called ransom-note
typography.
