Web Developer Q and A — The main difference between the "Times" font family and "Times New Roman" font family is that they are designed by different type foundries.

"Times" was originally designed by Stanley Morison and Victor Lardent for The Times newspaper in the 1930s, while "Times New Roman" was designed by Stanley Morison and Victor Lardent for the Monotype Corporation in the 1930s, based on the original design of "Times".

While both font families have a similar serif design and are often used interchangeably, there may be slight differences in glyph shapes, kerning, and overall appearance due to the different foundries that produced them.

Additionally, "Times New Roman" has become more commonly used in digital and print media, making it more widely recognized and used than the original "Times" font family.
