Does anyone know whether FreeType supports fonts with the signature
(first 4 bytes) 'OTTO', and if so, which drivers are needed, and in
which version was support added for this format? I have googled for some
time, and experimented with various drivers, but without success, so
forgive me for
I think default configuration of FT2 can load CFF OpenType
(pathname suffix is .otf and the first 4 bytes is OTTO).

Thanks - can you tell me which version this support was introduced in? I

Git shows that the cff driver was
Thanks - I'll experiment further. But the addition of the CFF driver is
not sufficient. What we have here is a CFF font packaged inside
something else, I think.

Yes, CFF inside a SFNT container; what the public know as otf fonts.
When Werner added docs/formats.txt in 2004, ft already supported OTTO,
and that
