Convert FON to DFONT
Convert FON fonts to DFONT format, edit and optimize fonts online and free.
The FON file extension, part of the Windows Font Library, refers to a font library file used in Microsoft Windows 3.x. It is essentially an executable file renamed to FON, containing a collection of FNT files, which are bitmapped or stroked fonts. These files were used by applications to access system fonts. However, FON files are now obsolete, having been replaced by TrueType and OpenType fonts due to their limitations, such as the inability to resize fonts. The Microsoft Windows Font Viewer can open FON files.
The DFONT file extension stands for "Data Fork Font", a format used in Mac OS X (now macOS). Introduced to replace the older resource fork-based TrueType fonts, DFONT consolidates all font data into the data fork, enhancing compatibility with the OS X file system. Historically, DFONT was employed for system fonts like Courier and Helvetica, but it has been largely superseded by TrueType (TTF) and OpenType (OTF) formats. DFONT files are specific to macOS and cannot be used on Windows or Linux systems.
