+t1utils is a collection of simple type-1 font manipulation programs. Together,
+they allow you to convert between PFA (ASCII) and PFB (binary) formats,
+disassemble PFA or PFB files into human-readable form, and reassemble them
+into PFA or PFB format. Additionally you can extract font resources from
+a Macintosh font file (ATM/Laserwriter), or create a Macintosh Type 1 font
+file from a PFA or PFB font.
+
+* t1ascii: changes PFB (binary) fonts into PFA (ASCII) format
+* t1binary: goes the opposite direction
+* t1disasm: translates PFBs or PFAs into a human-readable and -editable format
+* t1asm: goes the opposite direction
+* t1unmac: translates a Macintosh Type 1 font into either PFB or PFA format
+* t1mac: goes the opposite direction
