Linda,
You'll need to re-convert your TrueType font with Fontlab. In Fontlab
(this is version 4.5), there should be under Tools->Options->TrueType,
an option that says "Scale the font to 1000 UPM". Be sure this is
checked, then convert your font again and to Type1, then use Type
Transformer.

Were the Type1 fonts originally converted from TrueType using Fontlab?

I am trying to the AFP Type transformer to create AFP Outline fonts
from
Type 1 fonts for a PDF to AFP transform I am working on.

The fonts I am getting have large spaces between the characters
when I
try to print with them.

Does anyone with Type Transformer experience have any suggestions of
adjustments I should make so that the character cell width in the AFP
fonts will match the spacing in the original Type 1 fonts?

Thanks!
