The OTF file extension is the type of file that contains font data. OpenType fonts are font formats that support advanced typography such as ligatures and contextual alternatives. It is a standard format for fonts developed by Microsoft to distribute fonts in the Windows operating system. This format was also included with Microsoft Office 2007 and later versions of Windows, as well as a few other applications, such as Adobe InDesign.
