Title: Unrecognized mac font

Thanks, but I can't find the original font file in your archive.  In the "original" directory, the only file (~Bembo) is zero bytes in size.

"._~Bembo" is hidden?

I see.  I suppose that this would be the resource fork of the original file.  ExifTool doesn't process the resource by default (it requires the -ee option).  But looking at the data for this file, it doesn't appear to be in the Mac resource format.  So I'm at a bit of a loss here.  I don't think there is much I can do about this one.
