Yes I've used the font converter on about six or seven different fonts.
Only thing you have to do is:

  1> unpack -x <macfontname>
  1> dir
    {There should be a new file on the disk}
  1> convert <unpackedfontname>

or use one of the CLI helpers such as a utility the allows the use of
pattern matching when it's not normally available.

Before you do anything with the convert program re-assign the font directory
to another disk.  Hope this helps.  Trying to convert a file without
unpacking it first will end up with an immediate GURU.
