Derek,

The LCDF tools from http://www.lcdf.org/type/ and Fondu from http://fondu.sourceforge.net/ may help to convert the fonts into plain PC-based Type 1 fonts.

I have a collection of very old 'typ1' fonts for the Mac. These appear to be little more than a Type1 font wrapped in an 'sfnt' wrapper. Unfortunately, Freetype doesn't appear to support this format. I have a few questions: — Am I correct that Freetype doesn't support 'typ1' fonts, or have I simply missed a configuration parameter somewhere? — If they aren't supported, would it make sense to add support for them, or are they simply too obsolete to bother with? — If the latter, is there an easy way to unpackage them to get the Type1 font data, so that I can treat them as standard Type1 fonts? Any tools available to help?

Thanks for any assistance you can offer.

Derek
