I'm curious if anyone has any experince in dynamically converting an
existing FontType 'NFNT' into a FontTypeV2 'nfnt' resource?

Before you ask why I would want to do anything of the sort, we're
actually using prc-tools for a development environment and don't have
the conveience of constructor to create the proper resource into the
prc itself.

In a nutshell what I'm looking for would be the font equivilant for
BmpCreateBitmapV3().

I could probably figure out how to hack this in myself, but I'm just
wondering if anyone has any warnings or advice that I should consider
before attempting to do so...

So far, I think that the only major tasks I need to worry about include
reading/writing out of the internals of the structures (it's okay:),
write the compiled FontTypeV2 to a resource, then re-load it again to
satisfy FntDefineFont() (which I assume can only work with data in the
storage-heap rather than the dynamic-heap).

I know that the structures have a likelihood of changing within
future versions, but is there anything else that I should really worry
about in doing this?

Thanks :)
