i studied graphic design and typography
'font' simply refers to all the characters in a particular typeface. the term was only really used by compositors and printers until people had computers at home.
i don't know any designers that don't have a twitch inducing aversion to one font or another
personally i fucking LOATH Zapf Chancery. Set it in all caps and i may well kill you.
there's a great little book called 'Just my type. A book about Fonts' i promise you it is actually a great read.
