Files with the .TTF extension contain fonts written in the form of Bezier curve templates, which allows for scaling without losing quality.

What is file format conversion?
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "BDF") to another (referred to as "TTF"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, BDF file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format BDF to format TTF becomes essential.
So, how can we perform BDF to TTF file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format BDF and transforming it into format TTF. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of BDF to TTF converters.
