Adobe Ends Support for Type 1 Fonts

Microsoft to Remove Legacy Feature

Microsoft has announced that it will be discontinuing support for Adobe Type 1 fonts in the upcoming autumn update for Windows 11. This decision follows Adobe's announcement that it will end support for these fonts in 2023.

Type 1 fonts are a legacy font format that was introduced in the 1980s. They are no longer widely used, and Microsoft has been recommending users to switch to more modern font formats such as OpenType for several years.

The removal of Adobe Type 1 fonts from Windows 11 will likely not have a significant impact on most users. However, some older applications and features may rely on these fonts and could be affected.
