- Description
- PCF (Portable Compiled Format) is a binary bitmap font format used by the X Window System. It stores pre-rasterized glyphs for fast loading and rendering, making it efficient for display servers. PCF fonts are commonly used for console and legacy X11 application fonts.
- Standard font format used by Mac OS X; font contents are stored in the data fork part of the file instead of the resource fork (which was used by fonts in Mac OS Classic).
