Small line used to finish off the main stroke of a letter (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

serif

(Other definitions for serif that I've seen before include "Decorative part of font" , "Little bit of character" , "addition to character?" , "stroke of the pen" , "Small line used in printing type" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
