Um, there is no standard sfnt format for a bitmap only font.
  Apple supports one format
  X11 has its own format (and supports Apple's)
  MS has NO bitmap only format.
    (and does not support either Apple's or X11's)

An sfnt container for a bdf file is a bad idea unless you are very
specific about what system you intend it to be used on.
