Better Language Support

Based on Unicode, an international character encoding that covers virtually all of the world’s languages, OpenType fonts can make multilingual typography easier by including multiple language character sets in one font. All OpenType Pro fonts from Adobe include the standard range of Latin characters used in the Western world and several international characters, including the estimated, litre, and euro currency symbols. OpenType Pro fonts from Adobe add a full range of accented characters to support central and eastern European languages, such as Turkish and Polish. Many of the Pro fonts also contain Cyrillic and Greek character extensions in the same font.
