interface: Fonts on the Mac come in tw varieties: bitmapped and outline fonts (TrueType and PostScript). Bitmapped fonts are stored in suitcase files and copied into the System file to use them. They are built out of the pixels on the screen. When you print a bitmapped font on any printer, regardless of resolution, the letters are still jagged. They come in particular sizes, unlike outline fonts, which can adjust to any size without losing quality.
