A typeface usually comprises an alphabet of letters, numerals, and punctuation marks; it may also include ideograms and symbols, or consist entirely of them, for example, mathematical or map-making symbols. The term typeface is... 18:43:24 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Font_family 18:43:25 ...frequently conflated with font; the two terms had more clearly differentiated meanings before the advent of desktop publishing. The current distinction between font and typeface is that a font designates a specific member of a type family such as roman, boldface, or italic type, while typeface designates a consistent visual appearance or style which can be a "family" or related set of... 18:43:27 ...fonts. For example, a given typeface such as Arial may include roman, bold, and italic fonts. In the metal type era, a font also meant a specific point size, but with digital scalable outline fonts this distinction is no longer valid, as a single font may be scaled to any size. 18:46:42 sharper: perhaps use the definition from CSS 18:53:36 action: JS to contact Richard Ishida to discuss use of visual characters/fonts in screenreaders. 18:53:36 Created ACTION-105 - Contact Richard Ishida to discuss use of visual characters/fonts in screenreaders.
