Font vs. Typeface #
September 11th, 2008 | In Worth Knowing
I can’t count the number of times I’ve wondered what the difference was. By way of analogy:
When you talk about how much you like a tune, you don’t say: “That’s a great MP3”; you say: “That’s a great song”. An MP3 is the delivery mechanism, not the creative work, just as a font is the delivery mechanism, and a typeface is the creative work.
