Typebox™ Offers Postscript and TrueType Formats
Every Typebox font you download comes in both PostScript and TrueType formats. Choose between Macintosh or Windows operating systems. Typebox currently does not offer cross-platform formats.

All our PostScript fonts bear "Font ID Numbers" officially assigned to us by Adobe Systems, Inc. This assures you that Typebox' PostScript fonts will not conflict with any other PostScript fonts that bear legitimate Font ID Numbers. Most major type manufacturers' fonts comply with this policy.

Every Typebox PostScript font comes with bitmap fonts for the sizes of 10 point and 12 point, individually handcrafted and edited by its designer for reliable screen display.

Macintosh System Requirements
Typebox PostScript fonts require Macintosh operating systems running System 6 or later. TrueType requires System 7 or later. Each font download includes both Screen Font Files and Printer Files.

Windows PostScript & Windows TrueType
IBM System and IBM-PC ompatible systems require Windows 3.1 or later. Typebox fonts for Windows work preferably with ATM (Adobe Type Manager).

Font Format Summary

Typebox automatically provides the customer with both PostScript and TrueType formats. To avoid possible font conflicts on your computer, we advise installing only one format type. The PostScript format is more commonly used. Typebox recommends this format over TrueType in most instances.

PostScript fonts are the industry standard for graphic design. Typebox only provides the TrueType version for those users who have specific needs or requirements.
