Briefly, OpenType is a font format jointly developed by Adobe and Microsoft in the late 1990s. It came into wider use only after 2000, when Adobe included support for advanced typographic features in their InDesign, PhotoShop, and Illustrator applications. OpenType fonts support Unicode, which means that a single OpenType font can contain more than 65,000 glyphs. A single font could be used for setting various texts, whether in English, Czech, Russian, Greek or Esperanto. OpenType fonts are cross-platform; the same file can be used on Mac and PC, and OpenType fonts should behave consistently on both platforms.
