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.
The SFD (Spline Font Database) file extension is primarily used by FontForge, a font editing software. SFD files are ASCII-based, making them human-readable and easily transferable across the internet. They store comprehensive font data, including outlines, character data, and bitmap fonts. Introduced by FontForge, SFD files have evolved to support multiple layers and complex font features. This format facilitates detailed font design and editing, ensuring compatibility across various operating systems.
