OCR-A is a font issued in 1966 [2] and first implemented in 1968. [3] A special font was needed in the early days of computer optical character recognition, when there was a need for a font that could be recognized not only by the computers of that day, but also by humans. [4] OCR-A uses simple, thick strokes to form recognizable characters. [5]

[10] Although ISO 2033 also specifies other encodings, the encoding for E-13B is the encoding referred to as ISO_2033_1983 by Perl libintl, [ 11 ] and as ISO_2033-1983 or csISO2033 by the IANA .

PDF is a standard for encoding documents in an "as printed" form that is portable between systems. However, the suitability of a PDF file for archival preservation depends on options chosen when the PDF is created: most notably, whether to embed the necessary fonts for rendering the document; whether to use encryption; and whether to preserve additional information from the original document ...
