: What's the meaning of Std and WGL on Typefaces? Taking for example the Rockwell OTF typeface. There are three "classes" inside of it: Rockwell Rockwell Std Rockwell WGL Are those particular
Taking for example the Rockwell OTF typeface. There are three "classes" inside of it:
Rockwell
Rockwell Std
Rockwell WGL
Are those particular to this typeface, or they mean something in general when we are talking about typefaces? Checking the glyphs I didn't spot any difference between Rockwell and Rockwell WGL Regular, the only difference is between Rockwell Std and the others, as the first one has less glyphs.

Std means "standard" and can have different meanings depending on the foundry. The difference between Rockwell and Rockwell Std appears to be a difference in symbols included as well as minor differences in letter spacing and line height.
WGL fonts only support Windows Glyph List characters.
For information about other font name abbreviations, I find this list to be helpful.
