List of serif typefaces
This list of samples of Serif typefaces details standard fonts used in printing, classical typesetting and printing. For a list of the principal serif fonts used in mainstream graphical user interfaces, such as - for example - GNOME on Linux, see Samples of display typefaces, although in reality in modern computing most fonts are designed to be multi-purpose.
