- Description
- A Printer Font Binary (PFB) file is a type of font file used specifically in the context of Adobe Type 1 fonts. It stores font data in a binary format, which includes the glyph shapes and font metrics necessary for rendering text accurately on screens and in print. The PFB file is typically used in conjunction with a metric file (with an .AFM or .PFM extension) that provides additional layout information. This file format was widely used for high-quality typography on PostScript printers.
- A CFF file is a bare Compact Font Format font program, the compact form of an Adobe PostScript Type 1 or CID-keyed font that uses Type 2 charstrings. It is the same data an OpenType font stores in its 'CFF ' table, without the surrounding OpenType wrapper, so it is usually extracted from or embedded into OTF fonts and PDF files.
