[comp.sys.mac] Macintosh Fonts file format

When I download a Macintosh font from a Mac BBS to my IBM PC clone, what
format is the file in?  As far as I can tell, the actual bits of the glyphs
are in single bitmap, and there is a table of characters that gives
coordinates into the bitmap for each character.  Does anyone out there in the
Mac and/or IBM world have a defining document for these font files that they
could post or mail to me?  Many thanks,
