It's font to 99% of the world, so I use that most of the time

I say typeface when I mean typeface and font when I mean font but then again I also point out to people when they use hyphens instead of en or em dashes so yeah I’m *that* person 😂😂😂

Thank you @nathanp 👏🏽
I know the difference now I’m a designer. But I think I have gotten used to saying fonts for everything. When I’m teaching newbies though or something I know calls for proper terminology, I always call myself to order.

Yes I still say fonts. I know the right differentiation but “font” is easier. I always catch myself correcting myself when ever I say font instead of “typeface” 😂

Dear designer, do you also say font and not typeface? I mean I know there’re different but then …

Keep it up Laura. I’ll Try to say them correctly now

Of course it’s easy to just call them all fonts

Font is better too when conversing with non creatives. It really is easier

I think of typeface as the family of fonts and font as each size/weight
