- 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.
- YUV video file format is a type of file used to store video data that has been encoded using the YUV color space. The YUV color model represents images by separating the luminance (Y) component from the chrominance (U and V) components. This separation allows for efficient video compression and broadcast transmission because the human eye is more sensitive to luminance details than to color differences. YUV files are often used in video processing and editing applications, as well as in professional broadcasting.
