Yep, common names are Poster, Display, Text, Caption, and Micro.
Optical size can help adjust for light or dark themes. Some rare fonts also include a Grade axis, which lets you tweak character weight slightly without changing their width.

Strategy 4: adjust spacing dynamically with font size
There’s no one-size-fits-all value. A headline at 60px might need more negative spacing than one at 40px. Same goes for tiny caption text, a touch of extra spacing can go a long way.

Strategy 3: loosen spacing for tiny text
At small sizes, the letters can feel cramped. Adding a bit of positive spacing helps open things up and improves legibility.

Strategy 2: tighten spacing for headlines
As you scale up your text, the space between letters grows too. So if you’re using a text font at large sizes (say, 20px or more), it often helps to reduce letter spacing a little to keep things looking balanced.

Strategy 1: leave text fonts alone at body text sizes
Popular fonts like Inter or Poppins are designed to work well at common text sizes (usually between 14 and 18px) without any extra spacing tweaking.
That’s why they’re called “text fonts,” btw.

First, let’s talk about what’s off with recommending a fixed letter spacing for an entire font family.

This is a classic example of optical correction for intersecting lines in font design.
To make the diagonal appear straight at the center of the cross, the type designer slightly breaks and shifts it inward.
