T1 => TTF conversion with ATM
Iain's post on how to convert a type 1 font to a truetype font when ATM is installed on your PC: - Create two new directories, (I call them FontIN and FontOUT).
- Put a COPY of the .pfb and .pfm files in the FontIN directory.
- Fire up Fontographer.
- Click on File.
- Open Font.
- Navigate to the FontIN directory, then click on the .pfb file.
- Click on File.
- Import.
- Metrics.
- Navigate to the FontIN directory, then clickon the .pfm file.
- Click on File.
- Generate Font Files.
- A new box will open.
- Set Computer to PC.
- Set Format to TTF.
- Set Directory to FontOUT under "where to output the fonts".
- Click on Generate.
- When you close or exit, you will be asked whether to save the changes you made. Click on Don't Save, otherwise you will mess up the input.
- Delete the files in the FontIN directory.
- Your fresh .ttf file will be in FontOUT.
