In the early 1990s there were several other systems for storing outline-based fonts, developed by Bitstream and METAFONT for instance, but none included a general-purpose printing solution and they were therefore not widely used.
U ranim 1990-im bilo je nekoliko drugih sustava za pohranu fontova baziranih na outlineu, koje su npr. razvili Bitstream i METAFONT, ali nijedan nije uključivao rješenja za opću namjenu u tisku te stoga nisu bili u širokoj upotrebi.
