- Description
- A Printer Font Metrics (PFM) file is a type of file associated with Adobe Type 1 fonts used in Microsoft Windows. It contains metric information about a font, such as character widths, heights, and kerning pairs, which are essential for correctly displaying and printing text. The PFM file works in conjunction with a PFB (Printer Font Binary) file, which contains the actual font outline data.
- This is an image format that can be transmitted over analog broadcasting channels. It has a 16-bit structure, and it is transmitted using a three-component YUV color model. One component is responsible for brightness, and the remaining two account for differences in color.
