| | The TrueType Font File |
| | Apple makes a distinction between a "TrueType font" (which refers to a particular font outline definition technology) and an "sfnt-housed font," which refers to any font which uses the same packaging format as a TrueType font: that is, it uses the same directory structure and the same table format and meaning for any tables present. | | | The font directory, the first of the tables, is a guide to the contents of the font file. | | | Fonts may be non-TrueType sfnt-housed fonts and lack some of TrueType's required tables. |

| | Fonts in the X Window System |
| | Outline fonts need to be rasterized into specific sizes; this may be done on-the-fly in the X server, or via a remote font server. | | | The X Window System font file formats can support up to 65,536 characters in a font, but not all font software works properly with these fonts. | | | X terminals store a very small set of fonts in read-only nonvolatile memory, and then when they are powered on, or rebooted, they fetch their operating system and other needed fonts from a remote server machine. |

| | An outline font (or "vector font") is one defined as vector graphics, i.e. | | | The result of transforming a character in an outline font in a particular way is often saved as a bitmap in a font cache to avoid repeating the calculations if that character is to be drawn again. | | | Outline font characters can be scaled to any size and otherwise transformed more easily than a bitmap font, and with more attractive results, though this requires a lot of numerical processing. |
