Typeface

Stroke Weight

Stroke weight refers to the thickness of the print. There are light, medium, and bold
stroke weights. The printer function has medium and bold fonts available. The

Style

styles: upright and italic.

With some fonts, like CourierPS and Letter Gothic, the terms "Oblique" and
"Slanted" are used in the same manner as italics.
