there is a system in order to convert a font .bdf or .pcf into font .fon or 
.ttf. i have tried bdftofon.exe and pcftofon.exe, but for the my font,they 
have errors: too many characters. thanks

ttf2pt1 (http://ttf2pt1.sf.net) can convert .bdf to 
Type1 (.pfa or .pfb). Conversion to the smooth curves
is a bit experimental and incomplete yet, but the 
direct by-pixel conversion works fine.

There is also some interactive editor, I forgot the 
name, pfaedit or something, that can convert to TTF.

That program only allows 256 glyphs. Remove any extra glyphs and try it again.

BTW, the sources are available at 
ftp://ftp.knackered.org/pub/angus/bdftofon.tar.gz
