Outline Information Window
The Outline Information window displays information from a typeface's outline font resources.
For PostScript fonts, the data is taken from the comment lines found in the
POST 501 resource data of the downloadable font. Line 1 contains the format
version information, ie. Type 1.0 or Type 3. Line 2 contains the creation
date and version, and Line 3 contains the printer virtual memory usage comment
line.
When viewing TrueType fonts FontView can provide version, date, and name record
information for the font. Note that only the first 210 name records are provided.
For detailed information on what the values in these fields mean, see
Inside Macintosh: Text, QuickDraw GX Font Formats,
The TrueType Font Format Specification,
TrueType 1.0 Font Files: Technical Specification,
or PostScript Language Reference, 2nd edition.
