Working with TrueType and OpenType Fonts | C++

TTF fonts have become an essential part of digital communication, enabling the display of text in a visually appealing and readable manner across a wide range of devices and applications, including operating systems, word processors, graphic design software, and web browsers.

True Type fonts give you scalability, wide collections of glyphs, Unicode support, hinting, and embeddability along with various character sets, including ASCII, Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, and many others.

OTF or OpenType is an extension of the TrueType font format, keeping the TTF structure but gaining additional features like support for advanced typography and multilingual text.
