Verdana is an OpenType font. So far I've stayed well clear of this.

It isn't any of those types. You'd need to read the OpenType
specification and convert it. (Yes, another specification. This is
enough to keep you in work for several years).

>Is there something I don't get about this font types(from this point of view)?

I think the only thing you don't get is that you really have to do all
this. You are looking for shortcuts to avoid thousands of lines of
code.
