[comp.fonts] Compactor format? Help needed.

rsm@math.arizona.edu (Robert S. Maier) (05/21/91)

What is Compactor format?  Does anyone have a formal specification for it?

I ask because there are a lot of compactified Type 1 fonts on
mac.archive.umich.edu (in the /mac/system.extensions/font/type.one.fonts
directory).  They look interesting.

I'm on a Unix machine, and would prefer to uncompactify them without
moving them to a Mac.  If I know the format, I can write my own
uncompaction program.
