From Old English font, an early borrowing from Latin fōns, fontis (“fountain”).
From Middle French fonte (“act or process of founding or melting; act of producing items from molten metal; cast iron; set of type”) (modern French fonte), either: from fondre (“to melt, melt down; to smelt”), from Old French fondre, from Latin fundere, the present active infinitive of fundō (“to pour out; to make by smelting, found”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European ǵʰewd- (“to pour”); or from Late Latin fundita, a noun use of funditus, a perfect passive participle form of Latin fundō (see above; the classical Latin form is fūsus).
Apparently from fount, with influence from the senses above (under etymology 1).
Commonly paired with 'size' or 'style'; often used interchangeably with 'typeface' in non-technical contexts.
