     <h2>Generation</h2>
-    <p>The outline version of Bedstead is generated by an ISO C program
-      which emits a Spline Font Database file for use with
-      <a href="https://fontforge.org/">FontForge</a>, which
-      can convert it into most reasonable font formats.</p>
+    <p>The outline version of Bedstead is generated by an ISO C program.
+      It emits an XML file that can be processed by
+      <a href="https://fonttools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ttx.html">TTX</a>
+      (part of
+      <a href="https://fonttools.readthedocs.io/">fontTools</a>)
+      into an OpenType font.
+      The bitmap versions (in Bitmap Distribution Format) are then
+      generated from that OpenType font.</p>
