- Description
- The TrueType Font Collection (TTC) file type is a container format that can hold multiple TrueType fonts (TTF) within a single file. This format is designed to optimize storage and sharing of font families or closely related fonts by combining them into a single file, reducing the overall file size compared to storing each TrueType font individually. TTC files are supported by various operating systems and software applications for desktop publishing and graphic design, allowing users to efficiently manage and use multiple fonts.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
