Hi,

I've got this old font that I need to use. I would like to change the glyph mapping of the font (i.e., use the same glyphs, but map them to different spots). Does anyone know of a free application that would let me do this?

Thanks,

Ariel

Type light (freeware), if the font is .ttf or .otf.

Thanks John. I saw this myself. It's more than I need, though. I'm looking

just for something that can remap the glyphs in a font.

I did find MS Volt, and got by with that. But if there are any other

(perhaps simpler) solutions, I'd like to know.
