Let your AI agent convert PFA to CFF
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents can do this with Filestar. This skill runs in Filestar's cloud and needs a paid Filestar plan.
Install Filestar and add it to your agents:
npm install -g filestar
filestarcli agent install
Then ask your agent:
“Convert the PFA files in my Downloads folder to CFF”
Or run it yourself:
filestarcli -i file.pfa -c "convert to cff"

A Printer Font ASCII (PFA) file is a type of font file used in the context of desktop publishing and digital typesetting. It contains font data in an ASCII text format, which includes descriptions of the font's characters, glyphs, and other typographic details. PFA files are part of the PostScript font format, designed for use in the Adobe PostScript printing language. These files allow for the scalable rendering of text, meaning they enable fonts to be resized without losing quality.
A CFF file is a bare Compact Font Format font program, the compact form of an Adobe PostScript Type 1 or CID-keyed font that uses Type 2 charstrings. It is the same data an OpenType font stores in its 'CFF ' table, without the surrounding OpenType wrapper, so it is usually extracted from or embedded into OTF fonts and PDF files.
