Type line

The type line of a Magic card is printed directly below the illustration. It contains the card's card type(s). It also contains the card's subtype(s) and supertype(s), if applicable. 
The type line has a set height and width. Because of this, sometimes there is no room for additional creature types, even if they would have been expected to based on flavor. This most often happens with legendary creatures, especially those that are also artifacts and enchantments - a Legendary Artifact Creature can fit Sphinx as a type, but not Construct, without shrinking the font size; while Legendary Enchantment Creature can't even fit God as a type without shrinking, leaving many of them with only one type.
Given the increase of enchantment creatures, the font shrinking has become more prevalent and accepted, though there is still a functional limit: <c>The Reality Chip</c> is a Legendary equipment creature, and its full typeline become problematic in translation (most likely in Italian, as "equipaggiamento" is six characters longer than "equipment"), to the point that anything to that respect cannot be done again.
