In traditional typography, a font describes a combination of a typeface, a point size, and attributes. A typeface is the look of the font. Point size refers to the size of the font, measured from the top of the ascenders to the bottom of the descenders, minus the internal spacing called leading.
Finally, a font can have attributes of bold or italic. Informally, people often use font in place of typeface as done in this article but technically, Segoe UI is a typeface, not a font. Each combination of attributes is a unique font for example, 9 point Segoe UI regular, 10 point Segoe UI bold, and so on. Typefaces are either serif or sans serif.
Serif refers to small turns that often finish the strokes of letters in a font. A sans serif typeface doesn't have serifs. Readers generally prefer serif fonts used as body text within a document. The serifs provide a feeling of formality and elegance to a document. For UI text, the need for a clean appearance and the lower resolution of computer monitors makes sans serif typefaces the better choice. Text is easiest to read when there is a large difference between the luminance of the text and the background.
Black text on a white background gives the highest contrast dark text on a very light background can provide high contrast as well. This combination is best for primary UI surfaces.
