2021, Claire Cock-Starkey, Hyphens & Hashtags, Bodleian Library, page 48:

(of type, typography) upright, as opposed to italic.

(of text, typography, computing) of or related to the Latin alphabet or roman numerals.


roman

What raises One Last Waltz far above the usual family roman is not just the gimmick of the ancient fable in modern clothes […] but Mordden's language and his sheer joy at telling a story.

1986 December 21, Michael Bronski, “Buddy Stories Your Brother Never Told You”, in Gay Community News, volume 14, number 23, page 7:

2014, "Novel and Romance: Etymologies". Heyworth, Gregory; Logan, Peter Melville (ed.). Encyclopedia of the Novel, Hoboken, NJ: Wiley-Blackwell, p. 942. →ISBN
Samuel Johnson, writing in his Dictionary of the English Language (1755), [defined] "novel [as] a small tale, generally of love." To modern sensibilities, Johnson's novel resembles more closely the novella in dimension and the romance in substance. … [T]he term romance, or roman, once interchangeable with novel in English, retains the meaning of novel in Germany, France, Russia, and most of Europe, while in the anglophone world it has been demoted to frivolity.
