There are two ‘flavours’ of OpenType font: PostScript (.otf) and TrueType (.ttf); an OpenType font wil show the extension that matches its ‘flavour’. You should have no trouble using either on Windows. A .dfont, on the other hand, is a Mac OS X data fork font and they are only supported on the Mac OS. They can be converted for use on Windows but I would use cross-platform fonts instead.
