OpenType and Adobe Applications
Adobe’s flagship page layout program, Adobe InDesign®, was the first Adobe application to provide advanced OpenType feature support. With InDesign and other OpenType-savvy applications, you can turn on OpenType layout features that automatically substitute alternate glyphs in an OpenType font.
Previous font technologies required separate font files for expert character sets and multiple languages. OpenType fonts combine base character sets, expert sets, and extensive additional glyphs into one file.
