OpenType

OpenType is a font format designed to improve the quality and versatility of digital typography. Developed by Microsoft and Adobe, it supports advanced features like ligatures (combined character forms), multiple language glyphs, and varying styles within a single typeface. OpenType fonts can contain both TrueType and PostScript data, allowing for better compatibility across different systems and applications. This format enables designers and users to create more visually appealing and functional text, enhancing readability and aesthetic quality in digital and printed materials.
