PostScript Type 3 (.pt3)

The PT3 file extension stands for PostScript Type 3, a font format developed by Adobe Systems. Introduced in 1984, PostScript Type 3 fonts utilize the full PostScript language to define glyphs, allowing for advanced features like shading, color, and fill patterns. Unlike Type 1 fonts, Type 3 does not support hinting, which can affect rendering quality at smaller sizes. Despite its flexibility, Type 3 fonts are less commonly used today due to the rise of more advanced font technologies.

Printer Font Binary (.pfb)

The PFB (Printer Font Binary) file extension is associated with Adobe's Type 1 fonts, primarily used in Windows operating systems. These files store font data in a compact binary format, which includes glyph data and encryption for protection. Introduced in the 1980s, PFB files were part of Adobe's PostScript technology, enabling high-quality digital typesetting. They work alongside PFM (Printer Font Metrics) files, which contain character measurements. PFB files are essential for precise font rendering in professional printing and digital design.
