The distinct design is called a typeface. The typefaces you select add personality to a document.
  • Page 227: Bitmapped And Scalable Fonts

    In proportional (or typographic) fonts, every character can have a different width. Since proportional fonts have characters with different widths, the font size is specified in point size, not pitch. Point size refers to the height of the characters in the font. A point is defined as 1/72 inch. The characters in a font printed at 24 point will be twice as large as the characters in the same font printed at 12 point.
