- Description
- Type42 was based on the PostScript language for displaying TrueType fonts. It allows for printing all TrueType fonts on PostScript printers and allows for rasterization when displayed.
- The Web Open Font Format 2.0 (WOFF2) file is a modern font format designed specifically for use on the web. It is an evolution of the WOFF format, offering improved compression and thus smaller file sizes, which enhances web performance by reducing the time it takes for fonts to load. WOFF2 supports the same customization and features as its predecessor, but with more efficient encoding and compression mechanisms.
