Crosshair Font Editor?

Hello all!
I play tf2 on my macbook pro and consequently have quite a few problems with custom HUDS. Thanks to community hud makers and gentlemen like omp that make their huds mac compatible it's rarely a problem. However, when I tried recently to install a font file (in .ttf format) on my mac, the font was cut off in wierd ways and the crosshair was just distracting and useless. I know what the problem is and I know how to fix it, I just need a good font editing software. Anyone have any recommendations or any knowledge of an easy fix?

Or, if that is unrealistic/too difficult, would any HUD maker be willing to edit the font for me? I'd be willing to compensate you for your time via paypal or tf2 items or whatever.

How the crosshair is supposed to look (258 HUD):

This is what it looks like when I open the font in a font editor, the problem seems obvious I just need a non-demo version of true type/better editing software to be able to fix it.

I have the same problem. Would you mind contacting me if you find a fix?

No, of course I wouldn't mind. If I find a fix I'll be sure to let you know. At the moment I am simply using the crosshair that comes with chrizhud, which works fine on my computer.

Here's the chrizhud link if you want the crosshair: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/29269937/Chrizhud.zip
