`i' in Elisp manual, then choose entry fonts in this manual. It sends
you to node Some Terms, which has nothing about fonts in this manual.
 

In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2008-04-04 on LENNART-69DE564
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600

Actually, it does: it talks about the typographic conventions used in
the manual, i.e. which fonts are used for which kind of entities.

This makes more sense in the DVI/PDF/PS version than in the Info version
and indeed it is a bit confusing for the reader who was hoping to see
a discussion about fonts in Emacs.

Could someone improve the wording to make it more clear?
