The *.mf files in lilypond/mf are converted to proto Type 1 code using the script `mf2pt1' (which in turn calls METAPOST instead of METAFONT for creating PostScript code). Processing the *.mf files also creates log files with a lot of auxiliary information that gets further converted to the three extra SFNT tables by `scripts/build/mf-to-table.py'. FontForge now converts the proto Type 1 code (in batch mode) to the final OTF format using scripts generated by `emmentaler-scripts.py'. Have a look into file `mf/README' for some technical details, especially how to prepare proof sheets to check the glyph outlines. > 2) I looked at the emmentaler-scripts.py, but how do I exactly work > with that? You shouldn't use this directly but look at the FontForge script commands! See http://fontforge.github.io/en-US/documentation/scripting/native/ for the complete (native) scripting reference.
