The payware programs FontMonger ($95 street) and MetaMorphosis
($89 street) convert between all types of TrueType and PostScript
fonts. On the PC side the REFONT program available from

<URL:ftp://jasper.ora.com/pub/mac-font-tools/refont14.zip>

will convert Macintosh Truetype fonts to PC TrueType fonts and

PostScript fonts and vice-versa. It will not, however, convert
between PostScript fonts and TrueType fonts.
