Abstract

   This document describes the registration of the Multipurpose Internet
   Mail Extensions (MIME) sub-type application/font-tdpfr.  The encoding
   is defined by the PFR Specification.

   A Portable Font Resource (PFR) contains a set of glyph shapes.  Each
   glyph shape is associated with a character code.  The PFR format is
   designed to be both compact and platform-independent.  It is intended
   to facilitate accurate rendering of fonts in all environments whether
   or not they have the required fonts already installed.
