 I'm not sure maybe with mftrace
http://lilypond.org/mftrace/
From ff site

Different font formats
FontForge supports Type1, truetype, opentype, cff, type42, cid-keyed
and svg fonts, also bdf and NFNT for bitmaps
FontForge will sort-of accept metafont files (essentially it runs
metafont and autotraces the result). It won't produce .mf files
