Times New Roman
'''Times New Roman''' is a [[serif]] [[typeface]], produced by [[Monotype]] for [[Microsoft]], and distributed with every copy of [[Microsoft Windows]] since version 3.1. As with Times on the [[Apple Macintosh]], it is used as the default font in many [[application]]s, especially [[Web browser]]s and [[word processor]]s.

Times New Roman is based on the original [[Times Roman]] font developed for the [[Times of London]] in the mid-1930s, also by Monotype; Times New Roman was the first [[TrueType]] version of Times, and differs from Times Roman in name ([[Linotype]], Times' first licensee, owns the Times Roman trademark in the [[United States of America|USA]]) and very slight differences in design.

In 2004, the U.S. State Department announced that as of February 1, 2004,
all US diplomatic documents would use Times New Roman 14 instead of
the previous [[Courier New]] 12.
