Cf: http://pfaedit.sf.net (Hmm. Looking closer the otf I tried is CFF encoded, so converting to Type1 is a relatively simple operation. For TTF outlines in an OTF, it would probably be better to convert to Type42, yes? I've had success in the past using a Type42 font with TeX. ftdump will let you know whether the otf is ttf or cff.) -JimC _______________________________________________ Fonts mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/fonts
