drop handlebars for mtb conversion?

Hi -

I have an old Univega Alpina mountain bike that I am converting to a tourer. I am interested in adding drop handlebars but want to gather some knowledge before grabbing the first set of drops I find.

-Is there a difference between drop bars on a road bike and drop bars on a touring bike?
-Is there a recommendation on width?
-Anything else I should be looking for?

Thanks in advance.
