Artwork had to be done for each character in a language (for example, each letter in capitals and lower case, as well as diacritical marks and punctuation—all in a variety of size ranges), with separate drawings for each typeface (such as, lightface, italic, bold, and extra bold), possibly in a number of distinctive fonts, or type styles.
Tekeninge moes gemaak word van elke karakter in ’n taal (byvoorbeeld elke letter in hoof- en onderkas, asook diakritiese tekens en leestekens—alles in verskillende groottes), met afsonderlike tekeninge vir elke letterbeeld (soos maerbeeld, kursief, vetbeeld en ekstra vet), moontlik in ’n aantal verskillende fonte, of lettersoorte.
