The CID (Character Identifier) file extension, developed by Adobe, is used for CID-keyed fonts, which are composite (multibyte) Type 1 fonts designed to support large character sets, particularly for East Asian languages like Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. These fonts address glyphs by number rather than name, allowing for efficient handling of extensive character sets. Introduced to meet the demands of the Far East markets, CID fonts facilitate high-quality digital typesetting and printing by leveraging the PostScript language.
The T42 file extension stands for Type 42 and is primarily used for PostScript fonts, which are TrueType fonts encapsulated in a PostScript wrapper. This format was developed by Adobe Systems to enable the use of TrueType fonts in PostScript environments, facilitating compatibility and high-quality font rendering in printing and digital media. Type 42 fonts are widely utilized in desktop publishing and graphic design due to their scalability and precision.
