Serif (or “Roman”) means with end-strokes; sans-serif means without such strokes. Example:
| ACDEV | (serif) |
| ACDEV | (sans-serif) |
| blnqv | (serif) |
| blnqv | (sans-serif) |
Serif fonts are more formal, closer to traditional typography. Sans-serif fonts are more casual, closer to handwriting styles; they are supposed to be easier to read on computer screens.
