The chance of this working is minimal. For certain, I have never tested bitmapped opentype fonts, and I also am sure that subsetting won't work at all. Also, I am even less interested in bitmapped opentype fonts than I am in pk files. > That being said, I realize that it means Metafont fonts can't be used > in Mark IV, am I right? Dumping a ready-made pk file in the local directory worked last time I tried it.
