Hi John. I also like scripts. However I am referring to serifs as opposed to scripts. Scripts do not have serifs. Serifs are on fonts like Times Roman, Cheltenham, Bodoni and such. The serif fonts were designed to make each character differentiate from another by using narrow and bold strokes along with the tiny serifs. Books, magazines and newspapers usually are printed with serif faces. Other literature such as used in advertising and others use sanserif typefaces like Helvetica and Ariel because they have a more uncluttered and stylish appearance.
