BitFont is a program which will create a bitmapped font from any font
which can be drawn on your Macintosh. In addition to standard
bitmapped fonts, it works with Adobe outline fonts when the Adobe Type
Manager is installed, and works with TrueType? fonts. BitFont will
also tell you how QuickDraw will draw a given font (bitmapped, ATM, or
TrueType) and can create a text file describing a font and all its
characters.
The fonts created by BitFont are stored in a Font/DA Mover file, and
contain a single FOND resource for the font family, and an NFNT
resource for the font. Using the NFNT resource type allows any style
modifications that were selected in BitFont to be preserved.
