The font-family data type

The font-family is a comma-separated list of font names. These can be specific font styles such as Maestro or Opus, or one of several generic font styles: music, engraved, handwritten, text, serif, sans-serif, handwritten, cursive, fantasy, and monospace. The music, engraved, and handwritten values refer to music fonts; the rest refer to text fonts. The fantasy style refers to decorative text such as found in older German-style printing.
