About this specification

This specification details the format of OpenType fonts, the TrueType and CFF outline formats, and the TrueType hinting language. This specification has been developed jointly by Adobe and Microsoft. Because OpenType is an extension of TrueType, portions are also developed jointly by Adobe, Microsoft, and Apple.

Many references to both TrueType and PostScript exist throughout this document, as OpenType fonts combine the two technologies.
