What is a Font Format? A font format is a specific file type(s) designated to hold font data.
PostScript .cff The earliest high-quality fonts used for personal-computer-based print publishing were Adobe PostScript fonts. PostScript fonts made it possible to scale type to any size while preserving smooth curves and sharp edges.

TrueType is ubiquitous because it started out as an Apple font format and was later licensed by Microsoft; both companies made TrueType the standard font format for their operating systems.

This resulted in the OpenType font format, which is an open standard that makes it easier for more companies to create fonts.

New Jersey Performing Arts Center by Paula Scher of Pentagram
Paula Scher designed a large-scale mural for the National Center for Civil and Human Rights in downtown Atlanta, Georgia. The mural pays homage “to the graphics of rights movements and brings them together in a bold new composition centered on a raised human hand. The installation has inspired its own viral mini-movement: Visitors are showing solidarity with the mural’s message by sharing images of their own ‘high fives’ on social media.”
