''' This  will need updating, since FontForge is no longer supported as a tool by execute() So:
- ifont and ofont will need to be changed to have type 'filename'
- ifont will then need to be opened using fontforge.open
- The font will need to be saved with font.save
- execute will need to be called with the tool set to None instead of "FF"
