# [[CSS Font Fallbacks]]
## 🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)
This page lists commonly used `font-family` fallback stacks organized by the five generic font families — Serif, Sans-serif, Monospace, Cursive, and Fantasy — each ending in its generic family so the browser has a guaranteed last resort. [S1]
## 🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)
- **Fallback stacks by generic family** — commonly used font fallbacks, organized by the 5 generic font families: Serif, Sans-serif, Monospace, Cursive, Fantasy. [S1]
- **Each stack ends in a generic family** — every listed stack terminates with `serif`, `sans-serif`, `monospace`, `cursive`, or `fantasy`. [S1]
## 🧩 추출된 패턴 (Extracted patterns)
- **Ready-made stacks** — reuse the curated stacks (e.g. `Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif`) rather than inventing your own. [S1]
- **Quote multi-word names** — multi-word font names inside a stack are quoted, e.g. `"Times New Roman"`, `"Trebuchet MS"`, `"Courier New"`, `"Brush Script MT"`. [S1]
## 📖 세부 내용 (Details)
Below are some commonly used font fallbacks, organized by the 5 generic font families: Serif, Sans-serif, Monospace, Cursive, Fantasy. [S1]
**Serif fonts:** [S1]
```css
font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
font-family: Georgia, serif;
font-family: Garamond, serif;
```
**Sans-serif fonts:** [S1]
```css
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif;
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-family: Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
```
**Monospace fonts:** [S1]
```css
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
```
**Cursive fonts:** [S1]
```css
font-family: "Brush Script MT", cursive;
```
**Fantasy fonts:** [S1]
```css
font-family: Copperplate, Papyrus, fantasy;
```
**Tip:** Also check out all available Google Fonts and how to use them. [S1]
## 🛠️ 적용 사례 (Applied in summary)
The page presents each fallback stack in a table with the font-family value, a rendered example, and a "Try it" link, so the stacks themselves are the applied examples. No external project/commit applications found in the source.
## 💻 코드 패턴 (Code patterns)
Generic-family-terminated stack (language: CSS):
```css
selector {
font-family: "Primary Font", IntermediateFont, generic-family;
}
```
Concrete examples:
```css
font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
```
## ⚖️ 비교 및 선택 기준 (Comparison & decision criteria)
Choose a stack by the generic family that matches the intended style: serif stacks (`"Times New Roman", Times, serif`; `Georgia, serif`; `Garamond, serif`) for formal/print text; sans-serif stacks (`Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif`; `Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif`; `"Trebuchet MS", Helvetica, sans-serif`; `Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif`) for modern web body text; monospace (`"Courier New", Courier, monospace`) for code/fixed-width; cursive (`"Brush Script MT", cursive`) for handwriting; and fantasy (`Copperplate, Papyrus, fantasy`) for decorative display.
