font2svg, an all font to svg-font converter.

font2svg can convert any font ghostscript is capable of rendering into an svg-font. This includes all Postscript-fonts, ghostscript's own format and almost all TrueType-fonts. You may want to hand-edit the generated font to add font-style information.

usage: font2svg fontname input-file output-file

fontname specifies the name the font should be given in the svg-font. input-file can be any font ghostscript is able to render (.pfa, .pfb, .gsf, .ttf). Some TrueType-fonts (type 2) may not work.

Currently only a Unix-Version, but conversion to Windows should be easy (only a batch-script has to be provided). Contact me if you have written a working version.
