*in ‘metal type-setting’, a font was a particular [‘size’ / ‘weight’ / ‘style’] of a ‘typeface’*
.
(each ‘font’ was a ‘matched set’ of type (1 piece called a “sort”) for each ‘glyph’, and a ‘typeface’ consisting of a range of ‘fonts’ that shared an ‘overall design’)
(in ‘modern usage’ (with the advent of ‘digital typography’), “font” is frequently synonymous with “typeface”)
(each ‘style’ is in a separate “font file”—for instance, the typeface “bulmer” may include the fonts “bulmer roman”, “bulmer italic”, “bulmer bold” and “bulmer extended”—but the term “font” might be applied either to 1 of these alone or to the ‘whole typeface’)
(in both ‘traditional typesetting’ and ‘modern usage’, the word “font” refers to the ‘delivery mechanism’ of the ‘typeface design’)
(in ‘traditional typesetting’, the ‘font’ would be made from ‘metal’ or ‘wood’)
(today, the ‘font’ is a ‘digital file’)
