First of all, read an easy explanation of the font.

<TrueType Font>

This is a font made from the joint development of Microsoft and Apple in 1991.
And, even if it doesn't have the font on the printer side, it is possible to print.
It has spread for the ordinary family because the price is low.
However, it is an unsuitable font for the machine of the printing industry.
Please note it.

 

<Open Type Font>

This is a new model type developed by Adobe and Microsoft in 1996.
And, it is a font that can be used in both platforms of Windows and Macintosh.
It is ,in a word, the next generation font of TrueType and Postscript.
I recommend you the use of "Open type font".

 

<Postscript Font>

This is a font developed by Adobe in 1984.
Generally, this font is used for a usual commercial printing.
And, this font type is a form that many of Macintosh users are using.
"Postscript font" for Windows exists, too.
But, it has not spread because it was not used for a business print.
