Font conversion on mac

[jestelle (Josh Estelle)]

I stopped a little short of completely doing this, but this thread is helpful:

Alternative Bitmap Font Tools

Awesome info in this thread. But for this, to get otf2bdf, I had to do brew install otf2bdf This should be: bdf2bmp -s 0 font.bdf font-table-9-12.bmp (Sorry if I'm reviving an old thread – but this thread has great info and I didn't see any new info anywhere else – and figured I'd pass on these updates to the info here. I wonder if it's also worth mentioning that Font Tool.app isn't a thing anymore? If I'm correct in understanding that.)

I used otf2bdf, then bdf2bmp, to create a bitmap of a TTF font – which I think with enough fiddling I could get into Caps to turn it into a .fnt.

Let me know if you have success! And I'll reply here if I end up looking at it again too.
