- Hi. I am seeking a program that works in either DOS 5.00 or Windows 3.1,
- I don't care which, that will let me translate Macintosh Type 1 (Adobe)
- or TrueType fonts to PC format. Acute Systems' program Refont V1.1 is
- supposed to do this, but I have it, and I tried it, and it won't translate
- fonts stored in Macintosh "font suitcase" format. Using Mac-Ette, I get
- the font file (in the resource fork) into my DOS directory, but, Refont
- says "INVALID FONT FORMAT". BTW, the source fonts are from the EDUCORP
- CD-ROM of shareware, the new one, and the Mac uses System 7.
-
- Hence, I need a program that will do this. Please e-mail me an FTP site
- name that has such a program, if you know of one. If you have one from
- another source, even a commercial application, please e-mail info about it.
-
- If it's your program, I suggest you post a big ad for it in CAM, as I
- doubt I'm the only one who is seeking this.
