Seriften

Seriften is a typeface design feature characterized by the small lines or projections that extend from the main strokes of the letters. These projections are known as serifs. Serifs can be found on the top, bottom, or both ends of the main strokes of a letter, and they can vary in size, shape, and style. The purpose of serifs is to guide the reader's eye along the lines of text, making it easier to read, especially in printed materials. Serif typefaces are often associated with traditional, formal, or classic styles, and they are commonly used in books, newspapers, and other printed documents. Some popular serif typefaces include Times New Roman, Georgia, and Garamond. In contrast, sans-serif typefaces do not have these projections, and they are often associated with modern, clean, or minimalist styles. The use of serif or sans-serif typefaces can significantly impact the overall aesthetic and readability of a design.
