Is it possible to convert PC TrueType format (xxxx.FOT and xxxx.TTF) fonts
into Acorn format fonts? I havd a number of TrueType fonts which I would
like to be able to transfer to the 'proper' side of my RiscPC, but can't. I
know !T1toFont will cope with Type 1 fonts, but it doesn't seem to cope with
the TrueType format (or if it does, I can't work out how!)

Many thanks in advance,
