Best Answer

The kind of font you see here is a sans serif (sans = without; serif= flourish, embellishment).

The white letters on blue background forming the logotype Answers at the top of this page are a serif font, most everything else is sans serif on this page.

Time New Roman is a typical and common serif font. Arial is a sans serif font.

A serif refers to the "arms" at the extremities of a letter. So Times New Roman is a serif font because it has the sharp projections at the tips of the letters. Arial is a san-serif, or non-serif font because it is just a straight letter.

Serif Fonts:
Courier
Times New Roman


San-Serif Fonts:
Arial
Helvetica
