2 What’s the difference between ‘typeface’ and ‘font’? Typeface the design of the letters, numbers, etc varies in appearance (visual differences) the “song” you listen to –you say “I like this song.” Font the metal pieces used to type the letters, or the computer file varies by computer formats: Mac PostScript and PC TrueType the “mp3” file –you don’t say “I like this mp3.” Peters, Yves.“Font or Typeface?.” fontfeed.com: The Font Feed.
