OpenType History
OpenType is a scalable format for computer fonts initially developed by Microsoft, with Adobe Systems later joining in. OpenType as a technology was announced publicly in 1996 and had a significant number of OpenType fonts shipping by 2000–2001. Adobe completed conversion of its entire font library to OpenType around the end of 2002. As of early 2005[update], there were around 10,000 fonts available in OpenType format, with Adobe's library making up under a third of the total. By 2006, every major font foundry and many minor ones were developing fonts in OpenType format OpenType, jointly developed by Adobe and Microsoft in 1997, is the successor to both the PostScript.
OpenType Cross-platform compatibility
OpenType is a cross-platform format. An OpenType font file can be installed on both Macintosh and Windows platforms, and its installation requires installing just one file per family if made that way. In comparison, the Type 1 PostScript format requires installation of multiple files per family which are incompatible between Macintosh and Windows.
—Because they offer 100% cross-platform compatibility, OpenType fonts are the best choice
for those working in a multi-platform environment. CyberGraphics PostScript fonts are also cross-platform compatible to the greatest extent possible, but users should keep in mind that operating systems impose unique constraints upon typography, with the result that all fonts — regardless of their origin — have certain limitations.
—Character set differences. All fonts contain more characters than can be reached through the keyboard, and operating systems differ as to which characters they allow users to access. The fi and fl ligatures, for example, are available on the Macintosh but inaccessible under Windows; inversely, the fractions 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4 are available under Windows but not always accessible on the Mac. Documents containing these characters may therefore behave unexpectedly when exchanged between platforms.
—Font family arrangements. Microsoft Windows requires that PostScript font families contain only the four styles regular, italic, bold, and bold italic. In order to offer Windows users access to all the styles that are available on the Mac, type foundries have traditionally engineered their Windows fonts so that each font style appears as its own family. This technique gives users on both platforms access to the same range of font styles, but it causes each operating system to address the same font by a slightly different name. Not all applications are able to recognize these semantic distinctions, and those that cannot may substitute “missing” fonts with a system default such as Arial.
Macintosh System Requirements:
Any Macintosh computer running System 6.0.3 or later; both PostScript and TrueType CyberGraphics Fonts are System 7 or later, compatible; TrueType requires
