letters onto stone  requires letters 
made up mostly of  straight  lines. 
This script was the ancestor of the 
‘Times New Roman’ font  we find on 
our computer screens today. Another 
feature familiar to computer users is 
‘ italics ’. Initially, characters written by 
hand resembled the carved letters, but 
gradually scholars began to change 
the form of their writing, slanting 
letters and connecting them. The 
credit  for inventing Roman script using 
capitals and small letters  goes  to Aldus 
Manutius of Venice, in 1495 AD. The old 
Roman capitals and Greek   letter forms  
were thus transformed into the twenty -
six alphabet letters that we know 
today, with both upper and lower - case
