- Computers have many typefaces and fonts. They are either serif or sans serif. Serifs are small lines found at the end of the letter. They can make long texts easier to read. Typefaces without serifs (sans serif) are common in titles, headings and advertisements, as well as in online publications.
- Sometimes, the first letter stands out, not only because it is in upper case, but also because it is larger than the rest of the text. Sometimes it is embellished. This is known as the initial letter.
