Identify and briefly explain the four different types of fonts. What makes them distinctive?

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: The four types of fonts are serif, sans serif, script, and decorative. Serif fonts are easier to read for longer passages. Although interesting and dramatic, script fonts should be used sparingly because they are hard to read. Use decorative fonts only when you want to communicate a certain special tone or mood.
