I just spent two hours trying to strip the annoying headers away from some fonts I downloaded, using python, terminal, and CotEditor. I don't know Python. I was not successful.

    Preface; I probably cannot help you, just curious. Why did you want to strip the headers out?

      Because instead of the font showing in Font Book or Apple Pages as “IzmirNarrow-Bold” they were showing as “FONTSPRING DEMO - IzmirNarrow-Bold”

    You could try FontForge? It’s FOSS/libre and cross-platform, if you care about that.

      I have it, actually, but I’m not clear on how it would do this particular task?
