  @section Using Multiple Typefaces
  @cindex faces
  
!   When using Emacs with a window system, you can set up multiple
! styles of displaying characters.  Each style is called a @dfn{face}.
! Each face can specify various attributes, such as the height, weight
! and slant of the characters, the foreground and background color, and
! underlining.  But it does not have to specify all of them.
  
!   Emacs on a character terminal supports only part of face attributes.
! Which attributes are supported depends on your display type, but many
! displays support inverse video, bold, and underline attributes, and
! some support colors.
  
    Features which rely on text in multiple faces (such as Font Lock mode)
  will also work on non-windowed terminals that can display more than one

!   Emacs supports using multiple styles of displaying characters.  Each
! style is called a @dfn{face}.  Each face can specify various @dfn{face
! attributes}, such as the font family, the height, weight and slant of
! the characters, the foreground and background color, and underlining
! or overlining.  A face does not have to specify all of these
! attributes; often it inherits many of them from another face.
  
!   On a window system, all the Emacs face attributes are meaningful.
! On a character terminal, only some of them work.  Some character
! terminals support inverse video, bold, and underline attributes; some
! support colors.  Character terminals generally do not support changing
! the height and width or the font family.
