- 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.
- The SFD file format (Sofdec Dreamcast Movie) is a proprietary video file format developed by CRI Middleware specifically for use on the Sega Dreamcast gaming console. This format was used to encode and store video data for playback within Dreamcast games, allowing developers to include high-quality pre-rendered video sequences and cutscenes. The SFD format is optimized for the Dreamcast's hardware capabilities, ensuring smooth playback and efficient storage use on the console's limited media capacity.
