- Description
- The .fon format is a Windows font resource file that stores bitmap (raster) fonts or acts as a container referencing font data for use by older Windows applications. It is commonly used for legacy screen fonts, especially fixed-size bitmap fonts used in older Windows GUI elements and MS-DOS era applications. Modern Windows systems retain support for .fon files mainly for backward compatibility with legacy software.
- UFO2 (Unified Font Object 2) is a file format used for storing digital font data. It is an open source format developed by Adobe that allows for easy exchange of font data between different programs. It stores font outlines, metrics, and other data in XML-based files.
