particularly interested in using fonts that are bundled in Tex-Live. I will
leave bringing in other fonts till later when I understand the basics.

No. It is not letter vs. A4. Paper sizing is setup and letter is being

That's ok. It sounds very similar to the .ttc format, and we already

That's right; use fondu. Fontforge can read a .dfont (data fork
resource) but it cannot specify something within that to load without

accordingly. That pr
