Hello. We are trying to create our own *.FON file for use with
MicrosoftC v6, which should be the same format as the Microsoft
Windows *.FNT fonts. We have a hex dump of a fixed-space bitmapped font,
it's actually a scaled version of a TurboC font, and we want to
create an *.FON file to use in MicrosoftC.

Does anyone have the format of the *.FON files so that we can
create our own font, or, even better, does there exist a program
that converts from TurboC *.CHR files to the *.FON or *.FNT file format?

Thanks in advance for your help.
