Kukho iintlobo ezahlukeneyo zefonti ezenza uninzi lwamagama afumaneka namhlanje. Iintlobo ezintathu eziphambili zi-fonti ze-OpenType, iifayile ze-TrueType, kunye ne-Postscript (okanye uhlobo lwe-1).
Abaqulunqi bezobugcisa kufuneka baqaphele uhlobo lwamafonti abasebenzisa ngenxa yemicimbi yokuhambelana. I-OpenType ne-TrueType zizimele ezizimeleyo, kodwa i-Postscript ayikho. Ngokomzekelo, ukuba uyilwe iqela lokushicilela elithembele kumbhalo odala we-Postscript, umshicileli wakho kufuneka abe nenkqubo efanayo (Mac okanye Windows) ukuze akwazi ukufunda ipolisi ngokuchanekileyo.
Ngoluhlu lwamagama afumaneka namhlanje, kuyaqhelekileyo ukuba kuya kufuneka ukuba uthumele iifayile zakho zefayile kumshicileli kunye neefayile zeeprojekthi. Le nyathelo elibalulekileyo kwinkqubo yoyilo ukuqinisekisa ukuba ufumene oko uyenzile.
Makhe sijonge kwiintlobo ezintathu zefonti kunye nokuba ziqhathaniswa njani.

I-OpenType Font
Iifayile ze-OpenType zingumgangatho okhoyo kumagama. Kwifayile ye- OpenType , zombini iskrini kunye nefayile yoshicilelo iqulethwe kwifayile enye (efana neefayili ze-TrueType).
Baye bavumela ukuba kubekwe isimboli esikhulu somntu onokubamba inani elingaphezu kwama-65,000 glyphs. Oku kuthetha ukuba ifayile enye ingaba neenkcukacha ezongezelelweyo, iilwimi kunye namanani angaphunyezwa ngaphambili njengeifayili ezihlukeneyo. Iifayile ezininzi zefayile ze-OpenType (ngokukodwa kwi-Library ye-Adobe OpenType) zibandakanya ubungakanani obukhulu obufana neengcaphula, rhoqo, ngentloko kunye nokubonisa.
Ifayile ikhuphula ukunyanzeliswa, ukudala ubungakanani befayile encinci nangona yonke idatha eyongezelelweyo.
Ukongeza, iifayile zefonti ezivulekileyo ze-OpenType ziyahambelana neWindows ne-Mac. Ezi zinto zenza iifayile ze-OpenType zilula ukulawula nokusabalalisa.
Iifayile ze-OpenType zenziwe ngu-Adobe kunye neMicrosoft, kwaye njengamanje ifomathi yefomati ekhoyo. Nangona kunjalo, iifayile ze TrueType zisasetyenziswa kakhulu.
Ifayile yokwandisa: .otf (iqulethe i-postcript data). Unako ukufumana isongezelelo se-.ttf ukuba ifayile isekelwe kwifom ye-TrueType.

I-TrueType Font
Ifayile ye-TrueType yifayile enye equlethe iiskrini kunye neenguqulelo zeprintter zolu hlobo. Iifayile ze-TrueType zenza ubuninzi befonti ezize zenzeke ngokuzenzekelayo kwiinkqubo zokusebenza ze-Windows ne- Mac iminyaka.
Yadalwa iminyaka emininzi emva kwemiyalezo ye PostScript, iifayile ze-TrueType zilula ukulawula kuba zifayile enye. Iifayile ze-TrueType zivumela ukuhlonywa okugqithiseleyo, inkqubo eyenza ukuba iipikseli ziboniswe ziphi. Ngenxa yoko, oku kuvelisa imbonakalo ephezulu yefonti yobungakanani kuzo zonke ubukhulu.
Iifayili ze-TrueType zadalwa yi-Apple kwaye kamva zilayisenisi kwi-Microsoft, ezenza zibe ngumgangatho woshishino.
Ifayile yokwandisa: .ttf

Font PostScript
Ifowuni ye PostScript, eyaziwa ngokuba yimiyalezo ye-Type 1, inamalungu amabini. Inxalenye enye iqulethe ulwazi ukubonisa ifayile kwesikrini kwaye enye inxalenye yokushicilela. Xa iifom ze PostScript zithunyelwa kubashicileli, zombini iinguqulelo (ukuprinta kunye neskrini) kufuneka zinikezelwe.
Iifayile zePostScript zivumela ukukhangela okuphezulu, ukuprinta okuphezulu. Zingabandakanya i-256 glyphs kuphela, zaphuhliswa ngu-Adobe, kwaye ixesha elide liqwalaselwa likhethelo lobugcisa bokunyathelisa. Iifayile zefonti zePostScript azihambelani ne-platform-platform, ezithetha iinguqu ezahlukeneyo zikhoyo kwi-Mac ne-PC.
Iifayile zePostScript ziye zatshintshwa ngokubanzi, okokuqala yi-TrueType kwaye emva kweefayile ze-OpenType. Ngelixa iifayile ze TrueType zisebenza kakuhle kunye nePostScript (nge TrueType esilawula isikrini kunye nePostScript esecaleni ukushicilela), iifolda ze-OpenType zidibanise ezininzi zezona zinto zibalaseleyo kwaye ziba yindlela ehamba phambili.
Kunokwenzeka ukuguqula amanqaku amaninzi e-PostScript kwi-OpenType xa kufuneka.
Ifayile yokwandiswa: Iifayile ezimbini ezifunekayo.
- KwiWindows, .pfb (Inkcazo yeBinari yePrinta, umgca wefonti wangempela) kunye .pfm (i-Printer Font Metrics, idatha yeetrikri efana nekhenta).
- Kwi-Mac, .lwfn (umgca wefonti) kunye .ffil (iifomethi yefonti).
- Kwi Linux, .fa (ifayile yefonti) kunye .afm (metrics).
