[Groff] opentype and postscript fonts

Hello alls!


I'm thinking about getting a nice font with
ligatures, small caps, old style numbers, etc., to
use with groff. The problem is that all the newly made font
are opentype fonts, and can't be found as postscript
font.

I've searched on some solution to translate 
opentype fonts to postscipt fonts, and found some 
software: fontforge, and a command line
tool available with texlive: the lcdf type tools:
http://www.lcdf.org/type/

They both can convert opentype font to postscript
font, but they both generate a single postscript
font containing all the opentype features (small
caps, old style numbers...) instead of making one
postscript font for each feature.


So, does anyone how to split correctly such a font
to the differents fonts that I could use with
groff, or, more generally, does anyone know how to
convert opentype fonts to may use them within
groff?

Thanks for your help

Pierre-Jean.
