What is the large letter at the beginning of each chapter in a book called?
The letters at the beginning which are larger than the others? They're called an Initial. From Latin; initialis, "the start". They are just larger letters, sometimes they put drawing inside them.
This is completely wrong, and was totally unhelpful. I don't know if this is the official "Name" of the large capital letter that begins chapters, but in WORD it's called a Dropped Capital. or Dropcap. Word will automatically insert a drop cap into your paragraph if you click the insert tab, and under the text group pick Drop Cap.

Who can identify a typeface or font style for you?
The best way is to try a website that helps you identify the font type. You can try inputting a sample and see what answer comes up. See the links I have provided for you. If you have to do it manually, first determine whether it is serif or sans serif, and script, block, etc. Take note of the ascenders and descenders of letters like b, d, q, p, etc. Look and see if any characters appear more decorative than others. Also take note of the appearance of the lowercase a. Then go to a website that has samples of all these fonts and sort through the list accordingly - serif or sans serif, etc. Or use your computer's font library. It really helps if you are familiar with the popular fonts to notice the differences, otherwise this route will take you a really long time to compare each one.
See the Related Links for "how to identify a font type" to the left for the answer.

What is the Carolingian Miniscule?
Carolingian (or Caroline) miniscule was a script developed during the time of Charlemagne. From the 8th to the 12th century, it was used to produce classical texts, religious books and educational material. Seeking to come up with a unified script that would make the Roman alphabet more accessible to the literate, the developers formed the letters more clearly, using a style based on uncial scripts. Carolingian miniscule brought with it the use of capital letters and the tradition of separating words with a space. It is considered the basis of modern typefaces. It was created by Alcuin of York.
_____________________
Good answer -- with two exceptions: the term is correctly Carolignian minuscule. The now common misspelling, miniscule, did not arrive until the 17th century, long after the era of the Carolignian minuscule.
You've also misspelled Carolignianas Carolingian. Even Wikipedia gets this wrong!
The adjective Carolignian derives from Charlemagne. Carolignian majuscules and minuscules were devised by the teacher-monk Alcuin in the late 8th century CE, the era of the emperor Charlemagne.

What is the difference between san serif typefaces and serif typefaces?
Typeface and font are used interchangeably; however, the typeface is the primary design and the font is the implementation and variation of the typeface, such as bold, italics, etc. In the really old days--which means between Gutenberg's first set of matrices and the Compugraphic Model 4 phototypesetter--"font" also referred to size. So...if you had a rack of Caslon 224 roman 10 point, a rack of Caslon 224 roman 24 point and a rack of Caslon 224 roman 36 point, you had three fonts. Today, you'd have one.

What font is used for the Pittsburgh Steelers jersey numbers?
The official font of the Pittsburgh Steelers is Gunplay. It really does look a lot alike stencil, but it is not. The Here is the website if you want to learn more. http://famousfonts.smackbomb.com/fonts/pittsburghsteelers.php
AnswerThe font looks a bit like a black condensed version of Univers AnswerStencilGunplay is not the official Steelers logo font because the small 't' is squared off and should have an angled tip, it is also too wide as the official font in more condensed. The 's'es are not as curved and lazily angle down also. The font is not bold enough.
Stencil is a serif face, Steelers is not.
Univers Black is a closer match with the ses and t, but the letter e is too oval shaped, Condensed bold is the correct width but there is no condensed Black. It is also not stenciled.
It is a custom font and it is called Steelers.
Zurich Bold condensed is the overall closest match with the s, e, and t, but again it is not bold enough and not stenciled, but a condensed Zurich black is what I use and stencil it myself, although the letter e is not perfect. The letter r is not perfect either as it's end doesn't swing wide enough (tall at the end of the curve).
Universe has the t, Helvetica black condensed has the s, and e and almost the r, Universe has the r just a little less flared than Helvetica Black condensed. Zurich, Helvetica, and Univers all seem to have the correct x-height .
AnswerActually, the true font which looks almost exactly like the Steelers logo is called Plakette 4 SF. All of the letters are the same except for the t. If you want to get the same t as the logo only make the t Rockwell with bold formatting.
