DescriptionThe PFB file format, short for PostScript Font Binary, is a file format used to store Type 1 fonts used in desktop publishing. Type 1 fonts are a format for scalable fonts that use outline-based rendering to provide high-quality, resolution-independent rendering.
Détails techniquesPFB files contain binary data that describes the font's outlines, metrics, and other information needed to render the font correctly. These files can be accompanied by a corresponding PFM file, which provides additional font metrics, such as character widths and kerning data. PFB files typically have a .pfb file extension and can be used on both Windows and Mac operating systems. They are often packaged in a compressed file format, such as .zip or .sit, for distribution or sharing. PFB files can be used in conjunction with a variety of software applications, including Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop, as well as many other desktop publishing applications.
