the use of variable fonts to emphasize the impact of words in creative writing, such as concrete poetry.
Fontics is the use of italics for a word like flicker, bold face for a word like dark, and symbols instead of letters to suggest meaning as in st*r (for star). Example: twinkle, twinkle little st*r (sorry, couldn't get italics (twinkle) or font size (little) to adjust in this message box)

fon.tist. /fänt-təst/ Noun, can be used as a proper noun.

Not to be confused with the font designer, a fontist is the person who selects the font type in a graphic design project, such as movie credits, brand awareness, subtitles, menus in a video game, etc. A fontist can also be a font designer, but a fontist only selects the font, while the designer creates.
The fontist must ensure that these particular fonts are in line with the graphic designer’s art style of this particular project, must keep in mind that translations still must follow form, and must believe in the particular underlying emotion that this font is trying to portray.
Shadow thinks that the fontist for this movie, did not watch the movie, because it doesn’t match anything else in it.
