OS/2 PM Font is an OS/2 font format. It may appear in a file by itself, or in a (possibly compressed) resource section of an EXE or DLL file.
[TODO: What exactly are the .FMF files, which use this format, but are too small to contain a font? Maybe just font metrics?]

[edit] Format details
A font file evidently starts with a 20-byte "FONTSIGNATURE" structure, as defined in the pmfont.h file[1] in the OS/2 Developer's Toolkit. The first field takes its value from this definition:
#define FONT_SIGNATURE 0xfffffffe /* Identity header start */
[edit] Identification
A font file apparently always starts with bytes fe ff ff ff 14 00 00 00, followed by ASCII "OS/2 FONT".
