Some typefaces have a structure that suggests a three-dimensional letter, such as letters carved into stone. An example of this is the genre known as 'inline', 'block' 'outline' or 'shadowed' typefaces. This renders the interior of glyphs in the background color, with a thin line around the edges of the glyphs. In some cases, the outline shows the glyph filled in with the foreground color, surrounded a thin outline mirroring the edges separated by a small gap. (This latter style is often used with "college" typefaces.) Colorized block lettering is often seen in carefully rendered [[graffiti]].

A "shadow" effect can also be either designed into a typeface or added to an existing typeface. Designed-in shadows can be stylized or connected to the foreground. An after-market shadow effect can be created by making two copies of each glyph, slightly offset in a diagonal direction and possibly in different colors. [[Drop shadow]]s can also be dynamically created by rendering software. The shadow effect is often combined with the outline effect, where the top layer is shown in white with black outline and the bottom layer in black, for greater contrast. An example typeface with an 'inline' effect is [[Imprint (typeface)|Imprint Shadowed]], where the shadowed version is more widely distributed than the regular design.<ref name="Microsoft Typography Imprint">{{cite web|title=Imprint MT|url=https://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/family.aspx?FID=107|website=Microsoft Typography|publisher=Microsoft|access-date=12 July 2015}}</ref>
