[comp.sys.amiga] help with MacFont

sdl@linus.mitre.org (Steven D. Litvinchouk) (05/05/90)

Can anyone help me with the PD program MacFont, which appeared on Fish
disk # 138?

MacFont purports to be a set of programs that can convert a Macintosh
bitmap font file to an Amiga bitmap font file.  I have tried to use it
with Mac suitcase files moved with Kermit, TOPS, etc..  But no matter
which Mac font files I try, the "unpack" program that comes with
MacFont goes into an infinite loop and never outputs any files.

Anyone have any suggestions?  Alternatively, does anyone know of any
other software that can convert Mac fonts to Amiga fonts?
