# Sample script to convert legacy cmap subtables to format-4
# subtables.  Note that this is rarely what one needs.  You
# probably need to just drop the legacy subtables if the font
# already has a format-4 subtable.
#
# Other times, you would need to convert a non-Unicode cmap
# legacy subtable to a Unicode one.  In those cases, use the
# getEncoding() of subtable and use that encoding to map the
# characters to Unicode...  TODO: Extend this script to do that.
