Terminal (typography)

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 4 min

In typography, any stroke which does not terminate in a serif is a terminal. By definition all sans-serif typefaces have terminals, and serif typefaces often have them as well. Spurs, ears, and swatches are all terminals, and hooks often end in terminals.

Types[edit]

Terminals come in many types, including:

  • finial
  • ball
  • beak
  • teardrop
