What are the font AFM files to?

Given that Adobe Font Folio provides and as far as I know always provided fonts PostScript Type 1, in its Mac version, with the contour files + a file suitcase per family which supposedly included the metric of fonts in the range of resources, and in his versions of Windows, with contour PFB + metric files PFM files, what have been the AFM file never compatible with? Why Adobe also include those? What have been their alleged use cases? In fact, wasn't every other foundry fonts PostScript Type 1 in the same way? What would we ever need of these AFM files, even back in the day?

Back in the day, there are applications that have used the .afm files to get beyond metrics to put in the files .pfm on Windows or the screen fonts called on the Mac. And besides, there are also applications that functioned on raw MS-DOS or UNIX that don't support other mechanisms of metrics.

In addition, ATM (Adobe Type Manager, not the ATM) had the ability to create files .pfm from a combination of the file .pfb and corresponding .inf and .afm files sent in packs of fonts early who often do not have a .pfm file.

Of course, with fonts OpenType, the need for all other files disappeared.

    I don't know what they are. What are in?

    Basically, you can delete all the .tmp files. Note, however, that
    Although 102,000,000 may seem like a large number, it's actually a
    small amount of disk space. These days, where you can buy a 250 GB hard
    drive for about US $50, 102MB is about 2 cents worth.

  • (Mac) What are the commercial Adobe files?

    As a newbie to Adobe products, I don't know about all the files related to my Acrobat Pro.


    And I read that Mac don't like some Java programs.

    I'm trying to understand Adobe files that are in my Utilities folder in my user folder. See screen capture below.

    Would appreciate any education. Thank you.

    Do not touch anything unless you know what it is and are responsible for working with her.  These are probably not related to Java.

    What you have here several programs uninstall - Adobe AIR is an add-on used by a lot of apps that may have nothing to do with Adobe.

    Adobe Application Manager allows you to download and manage applications and licenses.

    And I hope that the last of them is clear enough.

  • What are the permissions of file for temporary files downloaded from IE?

    I'm just thinking that if I was looking for the web and a file is downloaded from a Web site, can these files in the temporary folder then in turn have permission to do whatever he wants on the computer too much, or is the purpose of these files to make sure that all temporary files downloaded by IE usable only by Internet Explorer. Confused? Made you think.

    In other words, these temporary files are not allowed to be access by any other program other than IE, right?

    Only, I can't find an explanation on the internet, so I thought I would ask here.

    Hello

    Please contact Microsoft Community.

    I understand from the description of the issue, you have any question regarding the temporary files that are downloaded as well as other files.

    Temporary files may or may not affect other programs outside the Internet Explore.

    If logged in as an administrator, these files may be authorized to may changes to other files or programs.

    However, if you use a standard account, they maybe isn't complete or sufficient permissions.

    You can keep safe surfing online as temporary files may contain spyware or viruses.

    See the article mentioned:

    To do this, follow these steps.

    a. right click on an empty space on the desktop and then click Properties.

    b. on the themes tab, click Windows XP in the theme box.

    c. click OK.

    Hi-

    I stopped using the system restore, I found a better solution, for me, that's what I have to do.
    Then I noticed that several 'file system' 'type' was being created, 12 times yesterday, 3 up to today in the early hours of the morning and stored in they System Volume Information folder, anywhere from 30 MB to 2 GB.
    three of these file names 'file system' 'type' are:

    Hi John,.

    Yes, you can delete the system volume information data if not to use the system restore.

    You will need to give permission to the folder until you delete it.

  • What are the issues and how can I put the documents in the files?

    As usual; Oracle is absolutely horrible in providing any kind of basic instructions on the use of the products.

    I need to upload files to a structure (don't care if it's collections, folders, or in mason jars as long as it works) and be able version them and seize those I want.

    I managed to get a variety of things to work with the genericSoapService (cannot use the API in accordance with local policy), but everything I check in goes in (don't know where)

    I don't think I'm even asking the right questions because my web researchers increase irrelevant results.

    What are the issues and how can I put the documents in the files?

    I created a few files like this:
