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.
