OK, I'll paraphrase. If you need a TrueType font, why do you want to 
make it from a bitmap font? Can't you find an existing TrueType font 
that meets your needs? If not, I might help.

There are some people who have successfully wasted everyone's time on 
converting bitmaps to outlines, so it's very possible to do, but I'd 
rather help you make good outlines from the ground up or from public 
domain outlines.
