I would like to be able to convert Macintosh bitmapped fonts to PostScript (tm) bitmapped fonts (NOT PostScript outlint fonts). So far, so good. I'd like to do it on my MS-DOS machine. That is, transfer the Mac font files over with something like kermit, and then write a program to hack the font files up. Questions: 1) Has anyone done this? 2) Failing that, where can I get DETAILED information about the format of those font files? I'm confident I can write the program to do this if someone can tell me where to get the information... Another unrelated question: what's the most recent version of Nelson Beebe's DVIxxx dvi translators? Thanks for all the help. -- Martin Warning: this computer frequently posts without my information or consent.
