"font.mdl" is a mdl file which contains definitions of font styles used in allegiance. The information contained includes a style name (used to reference that particular style), the font name, its size, and whether it should be made bold computationally. MDLC can be used to convert a text font.mdl file into a binary font.mdl file which includes the glyphs of the fonts used - allowing use of non-standard fonts on systems which do not have those fonts otherwise installed. Standard practise when producing binary font.mdl files from text .mdl files i to name the text .mdl "fontsource.mdl" and the finished binary .mdl "font.mdl".
