AlexHorovitz / Ohlfs-font-to-ttf-conversion

Among the many UI accomplishments by Keith Ohlfs at NeXT is this wonderful little font. It has never been modernized to work on the current version of the OS and unfortunately Keith passed away this year (October 26th, 2016). Anyone who is willing to help in this effort is invited to join.

Are there really no outlines in the Type 1 file? #4

Last @rhaleblian checked it seemed that the file was only for referring to the bitmap strikes. But it sure would be nice to have quality rendering for the other sizes...

Reviewing the human-readable files that relate to outline fonts, any that exist for Ohlfs contain comments to the effect that the files exist either as an empty placeholder or for bounding the bitmap fonts with an adaptation of Courier's metrics.
