Printer Font ASCII for Image (.pfa)

The PFA (Printer Font ASCII) file extension, developed by Adobe Systems, stores Adobe Type 1 fonts in a human-readable ASCII format, which can be converted to image files. Introduced as part of the PostScript character category in 1982, PFA files contain glyph data and can be opened in any text editor. They are primarily used on Linux and UNIX-like platforms and are incorporated into systems by copying them into the Fonts folder. The binary counterpart of PFA is the PFB (Printer Font Binary) file.

Printer Command Language (.pcl)

The PCL file extension, Printer Command Language, is a page description language developed by Hewlett-Packard (HP) in the 1980s. It is used to control printer features and describe the layout of text and graphics on a printed page. PCL files contain commands that instruct the printer on how to print the document, including details like size, layout, and resolution. Initially designed for HP's inkjet and dot matrix printers, PCL has evolved to support various printer types, including laser printers. Its simplicity and efficiency have made it a widely adopted standard in the printing industry.
