What is a .otf file?

A font format extending TrueType with support for advanced typographic features, widely used in professional design.

Can I edit a .otf file?

Partially. .otf files can be edited with the right tool (such as Font Book (macOS)), but not with just any text editor.

No single extension can guarantee that. Fonts are rendered by the operating system or an app and carry generally low risk. Still, only install fonts from sources you trust. Always consider where the file came from, not just its name.
