Converts a text file with Base64 encoded font (like in CSS) to a .bin file to be converted to a font

base64fonttobin.py

#!/usr/bin/python

# This script converts a font encoded in Base64 in a text file to a .bin font file.
# You can convert the .bin file using http://onlinefontconverter.com/, which I recommend though I am not affiliated.
# It'd be useful to know what the type (TTF, OTF, WOFF, SVG, etc.) the original font was for the online converter.

# tested with Python 2.7
