POV

Oh dear. It's a bit crap to have to POV a typography page, but Oblique type is a mere distortion? The article seems to be about what Oblique type is not, not what it is. Needs someone who has a clue to rewrite it. --00:35, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

All right, I think I've fixed it. Could still use some expansion, and someone could probably make an example image. --Bryan Nguyen | Talk 01:18, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I still don't get it. Oblique means distorted roman letters, but how are italics not just that? What does "different glyph shapes" mean? Roman vs italics seem to use just as different glyphs as roman vs oblique. I'd really like some further explanation. 193.173.38.232 (talk) 08:15, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
