You're on the right way! If you really want to dive into it, here are some pointers: Font specs from Adobe: http://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/technotes/fonts.html Multiple Master Font Extensions are described in: http://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/pdfs/tn/5015.Type1_Supp.pdf > I wonder how hard that would be to do... I'm not sure. I haven't looked at Multiple Master, yet. Good luck.
