What is a PFB file?
PFB (Printer Font Binary) is a binary font format used primarily in Adobe’s PostScript Type 1 fonts. It contains the actual font data in a compact, efficient binary form suitable for use with printers and applications requiring PostScript output.
PFB files are usually paired with accompanying PFM files that include font metrics. While less common today, PFB was an important format in desktop publishing and typesetting during the 1990s and early 2000s.
How to open PFB files
PFB files are typically used with PostScript printers and can be opened in design applications like Adobe InDesign or CorelDRAW when paired with the corresponding PFM file.
They can be converted to OTF or TTF using FontForge or online tools such as AnyConv for broader use.
