Fonts

dafont is a great website containing variety of great fonts. I am sure this website is extremely useful for those who search for unconventional solutions in terms of typography and design.

Serif and Sans Serif is the main division in terms of font types.

Consider the following characters. The first is set in Georgia, a lovely serif font. The second is set in Verdana, an easy- to-read sans-serif font.











Notice the small decorative flourishes at the ends of the strokes in the left character. These are called serif. The right character does not have these strokes and is said to be in a sans-serif font. ( Sans is the French word for without.)
Times New Roman is a commonly used serif font. Arial is a commonly used sans-serif font.
