Hello!
Serif fonts often have lighter strokes on one side, I recall hearing a specific term for this phenomena a while ago but I can't remember what it was. Can anyone unravel this mystery for me?
Best regards,

Serif terminology
You're looking for "Hairline". The stroke that is more thick or is by itself is called a "Stem".
Are you talking about "stroke contrast"?
