==== Type 1 and Type 3 fonts ==== [[Type 1 and Type 3 fonts]] were developed by [[Adobe Systems|Adobe]] for professional digital typesetting. Using [[PostScript]], the glyphs are outline fonts described with cubic [[Bézier curves]]. Type 1 fonts were restricted to a subset of the PostScript language, and used Adobe's hinting system, which used to be very expensive. Type 3 allowed unrestricted use of the PostScript language, but did not include any hint information, which could lead to visible rendering artifacts on low-resolution devices (such as computer screens and dot-matrix printers).
