Italic and Oblique Forms Italic typeface derives from the early
sixteenth century and is the printed form of cursive writing. Italic
forms are individually crafted typefaces. Oblique type forms are
not designed and crafted individually but are mechanically-slanted
versions of the upright form from which they derive. Oblique forms
can be very attractive in their own right. The term refers to the
method of design. (The following examples are all of the same
point-size.)
Stroke Weight Stroke weight refers to the degree of print density,
or darkness of the printing. These weights are frequently classified
as bold, medium, and light. PostScript can allow you to print a
multitude of different weights, however, not every software
program can access this many.
