Re: Font not appearing in Carrara S2.1 - OS X.3 2003-12-03 - By Bob Dawson
Back
The actual designation is Postscript Type 1, and yes, all Type 1 fonts
are postscript fonts. When Adobe wrote the original specifications
there was another postscript font (Type 3, if I remember correctly). It
never really saw the light of day, mostly because it wouldn't print
well, caused crashing, etc. It was replaced almost immediately by Type
1. I don't remember why Type 3 came before type 1, and there's never
been a Type 2 (that I know of). For printing the standard is now up to
Postscript level 3, but Type 1 Postscript fonts are still the industry
standard. Newer font systems like "OpenType" are coming on line
nowadays.
