- 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.
- 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.
