Question Font, Font family

Just doing some more translating of parts of the forums...

What's the best translation for font and font family?
font = fuente, tipo de letra
font family = familia de fuente?
¿Qué opinan?

Iris is on a distinguished road
I like tipo de letra for font, but I wouldn't know how to translate font family nicely.

my options are old-fashioned (books)
Rusty's are understandable as internet variants

font = letra
font family = tipo de letra
font style = Estilo del tipo de letra, inclinación (itálica ó cursiva)
font variant = versalitas
font weight = grosor de trazo (negrita)
font size = tamaño de fuente
font stretch = anchura
bold = negrita
italic = itálica o cursiva
Times New Roman, 12 pt = Times New Roman, tamaño 12 (puntos)

valor por defecto = default value
background color = color de fondo
background image = imagen de fondo
foreground color = color principal, color de primer plano
text color = color del texto

text indent = tabulación
text align = justificación
line height = interlineado

Saludos

Ok, thanks. That helps. If you want to see where I'm using this, just go to your profile customization page, while viewing the forums in Spanish.

Also, ¿se suelen traducir estos nombres de tipo de letra? O mejor los dejo así.

Arial
Times New Roman
Courier New
Georgia
Verdana
Tahoma
Geneva
Trebuchet MS
Comic Sans MS
