2.2 Typefaces

For our purposes, a typeface is a collection of related fonts.

We sometimes use the same typeface abbreviation for fonts with different supplier names, where we know (usually by inspection) that the fonts truly are the same. This helps conserve abbreviations.

Notes on specific typefaces:

ad
gm
To explain a common confusion: ‘ad’ is Adobe Garamond (with a ‘FontName’ of ‘AGaramond’). This is quite different from the ‘Garamond’ typeface distributed by Adobe, which is actually ITC Garamond. (Garamond No. 3 (‘f3’), Simoncini Garamond (‘ig’), and Stempel Garamond (‘eg’) are still other variations on the Garamond theme.)
lh
ls
lx
r1
These abbreviations for Lucida typeface subfamilies, et al., solve a problem with names getting too long, or help conserve variant abbreviations. See Variants. Ideally, they would not exist.
ns
nt
tm
Suppliers offer as many variations on the Times New Roman design as they do Garamond. Adobe has ‘Times’, ‘TimesNewRoman’, and ‘TimesNewRomanPS’. Although this last has been used by other foundries (e.g., Monotype) for a Times variation exactly compatible with Adobe's ‘Times’, Adobe itself also offers it, so we must have abbreviations for all three.
pi
For pi fonts. Since names of pi fonts are rather arbitrary, it is not useful to try to assign typeface abbreviations to all of them. Instead, we use the supplier letter, ‘pi’, an arbitarily-assigned three-digit number, a weight and (if necessary) a variant. For example, ‘mpi001r’. Pi font ‘001’ for one supplier has nothing to do with pi font ‘001’ for another.

Here is the table, from the file typeface.map. It is organized alphabetically by abbreviation. Each line consists of an abbreviation and directory name, possibly followed by PostScript ‘FontName’s and/or a comment in roman. The ‘FontName’ may be preceded by a letter s and a ‘:’, as in ‘b:Dutch’. In that case, the s is a supplier abbreviation, and we've used that abbreviation for the given ‘FontName’ from that supplier.
