In typography, a serif is the little extra stroke found at the end of main vertical and horizontal strokes of some letterforms. Serif fonts include Times Roman, Courier, New Century Schoolbook, and Palatino.
San Serif
A category of typefaces that do not use serifs, small lines at the ends of characters. Popular sans serif fonts include Helvetica, Avant Garde, Arial, and Geneva.
Sans Serif fonts are harder to read according to most studies, so are used for shot text components such as headlines and captions.
