Fondu
George Williams has a number of free UNIX utilities related to Mac font files: - fondu: Fondu will read a series of mac files, check their resource forks and extract all font related items into seperate files. The input files may be either macbinary files (.bin), binhex files (.hqx), bare mac resource forks or data fork resource files (.dfont, used by Mac OS/X). Fondu will look through the resource fork for the following resources: POST (Postscript fonts), SFNT (TT, OT fonts), NFNT/FONT (bitmap fonts), and FOND (family information).
- ufond: takes UNIX font files and wraps them up into a mac resource and creates a family for them which in turn get wrapped up in a macbinary or binhex file. Ufond will read a series of .bdf, .ttf, .otf and .pfb files from the command line.
- dfont2res: convert a font from the new macintosh dfont format to the old resource fork format.
- tobin: Will wrap up a series of files into a macbinary wrapper.
- frombin: Will unwrap a macbinary file.
- showfond: dump some information about the macintosh font resources (FOND, NFNT, sfnt) found in the file.
