Rogier C. Van Dalen
This Dutchman at the University of Leiden wrote open source code for the following tools: - TrueTypeViewer enables you to view TrueType fonts, and, specifically, to debug the "instructions" embedded in the font. It has a "Features" button that will allows you to apply OpenType features to the string;
- TTIComp compiles a .TTI file (with "T"rue"T"ype "I"nstructions in a format not unlike C code) and a TrueType font into an instructed TrueType font;
- OTComp takes a feature file in a format not unlike Adobe's and produces an OpenType font with advanced layout tables. In other words, it is a text to OT filter.
- OTLegacy takes an OpenType font and adds Unicode precomposed characters to it by applying the OpenType features.
With these tools, he made two OpenType fonts in 2002, Legendum (like Verdana), and Garogier (like Garamond), covering Latin and polytonic Greek. Abstract Fonts link. Fontspace link. Klingspor link.
