'''F3''' was a scalable font format created by Folio, Inc., which was later purchased by Sun Microsystems. It was supported by the Solaris [[X Window System]] in releases up through Solaris 10, and then support was removed.

Sun attempted to make F3 into an industry standard under the name OpenFonts, but lost out to the [[TrueType]] and [[PostScript font]] formats.

F3 fonts were recognized in Solaris Display PostScript as Type 7 fonts.
