About fonts

The disks provided with your LaserWriter contain fonts from the most widely used font families. Font families (also called typefaces) can be classified into two groups: serif and sans serif.

T

Serif

Sans Serif

The small accents at the ends of the strokes of the letters are serifs. Fonts that do not have these accents are “sans” serifs.

How to use different kinds of fonts

Serif fonts are considered more readable than sans serif fonts. For long passages of text, typographers generally choose serif fonts. Sans serif fonts are used for headlines and short passages.

Your font disks contain seven serif typefaces: ITC Bookman® , Courier, New Century Schoolbook, Palatino® , Times® , Chicago, and New York. All but Courier are commonly used for both long passages and headlines or captions. Courier is designed to look like output from a typewriter, and does not give a page a typeset appearance. Times is the most commonly used typeface in the selection, and is considered to be one of the most readable fonts.

The disks include five sans serif typefaces: ITC Avant Garde® , Helvetica® , Helvetica Narrow, Geneva, and Monaco. These fonts are appropriate for headlines, posters, and captions; they are sometimes also used for short passages in brochures, invitations, and so forth. Helvetica and Helvetica Narrow are the most widely used of the sans serif typefaces in the selection. Because of its compact width, Helvetica Narrow is also convenient for mathematical expressions and spreadsheets.

Your font disks also contain three special-purpose fonts: Symbol, ITC Zapf Chancery® , and ITC Zapf Dingbats® . Symbol is handy for technical documents that contain equations and formulas. Zapf Chancery is highly decorative, and is useful for invitations, diplomas, and the like. Zapf Dingbats contains arrows, pointing fingers, small pictures (icons), and other symbols for decorating and illustrating your documents.
