Font. Slerum
First we must ask ourselves, what is font? A font is all the letters, numbers, punctuation and other symbols which compose a typeface.( according to vletter.com) The common roman/italic style fonts were designed by Nicolas Jenson around 1460, which was used in Italy to print books. The readability of the letters was greater than the german font that was used currently. Over a period of time, roman/italic fonts became a much used font. The roman font has changed over time and there are many versions for the font. A well used font is Times New Roman. Almost everyone has used the font at least one point in their lives.
