Yes, converting from CG to another format will loose some info…namely the CG fonts are defined differently than the other formats. They do not use bzier curves, so some of the data will be lost. Also, you will lose the hinting info going from PS Type 1's to CG and CG to PS Type 1. The hint information won't be very noticable, the bezier curve side really shouldn't be a problem either. Mark @ Soft-Logik Publishing PS: The kerning pairs on CG fonts are not available to TypeSmith (I'm not sure why, yet).
