if you have a mac, a double-click will usually do the trick (hqx
is an encoded mac format that stuffit, for example, can unfold
in its sleep). stuffit expander is freely available for download
at aladdinsys.com .
from there, there's a converter that'll take a mac truetype file
and swizzle it into a windows-happy file (and vice versa). i'm
betting that linux probably knows more about windows ttf formats
than the duo-forked mac font files...
um, right -- the converter utility (mac platform) is called,
IIRC, ttconverter. downloadable all over the place -- try
shareware.com for example.
