Why Postscript Fonts?
Postscript fonts are scalable outline fonts based on PostScript Bezier curves. PostScript font data isn’t stored in one file but rather in a collection of files. The way font data are organised in these files depends on the operating system. For Windows users, two files are used as well: one uses the file name extension “.PFB” file and it contains the outlines. The other file carries the extension “.PFM” and contains the metrics data.
Windows 2000 is the first version of Windows to natively support Type 1 PostScript fonts. It does not suffer from the limitations of INI files that plague Windows ‘95, ‘98 and ME. Even if ATM is installed on Windows 2000, all that ATM does is use the Windows API to activate and deactivate fonts.
