following Ricardo's post, before computers, I never heard the word "font." There was another word used in sign shops that came from the printing trade..."case." I worked in shops where it was important to know each others cases. Someone could stop in the middle of a line and go to lunch and I could come finish the job and you shouldn't be able to see where the transition occurred.
