Typefaces (or fonts) are divided into three basic categories: Serif, Sans Serif, and Script. Serifs are short lines or details that appear on the ends of line strokes that make up a letter. Sans serif simply means without serif. These are letters that do not have any lines or details on the ends of the letters. A script font is similar to a brush stroke effect. They are similar to handwriting in that they are slanted and looser. Below are examples of each style:
