I'm not sure who I'm responding to here, really, but I grabbed a couple
of BDF files from Tom's web page, and "pilfont" has no problems con-
verting them to PIL's bitmap format.

however, I see that there has been some changes since 1.1.4; to make
sure you're using the same code as I use, grab the BdfFontFile.py module
from the 1.1.5a2 release:
