Script for metafont to TTF conversion?

Question

In the metatype FAQ, there's a section called "I have Metafont sources of some font. How could I convert it to TrueType using Metatype?" In that, he lays out a dozen steps that really should be scripted. Does anyone know of such a script? (I understand the result won't look very good at low font sizes.)

Answer 1

Well, there is a mf2pt1 Perl script which will get you half way there...

But it only converts Metafont to PostScript Type 1 font, which you can then convert to .ttf via FontForge
