Type 42 (.t42)

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.

Data Fork Font (.dfont)

The DFONT file extension stands for "Data Fork Font", a format used in Mac OS X (now macOS). Introduced to replace the older resource fork-based TrueType fonts, DFONT consolidates all font data into the data fork, enhancing compatibility with the OS X file system. Historically, DFONT was employed for system fonts like Courier and Helvetica, but it has been largely superseded by TrueType (TTF) and OpenType (OTF) formats. DFONT files are specific to macOS and cannot be used on Windows or Linux systems.
