Noto CJK fonts OTF to TTF export

Hi,
I am a new user to FontCreator and I have no knowledge of fonts. I bought this software only to convert Google Noto CJK fonts from otf format to ttf format so that I can use the ttf fonts to create pdf documents using apache pdf box library.
When I am using the converted ttf font, the pdf box fails while loading font with below error.
java.io.IOException: loca is mandatory
at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.TTFParser.parseTables(TTFParser.java:209)
at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.TTFParser.parse(TTFParser.java:150)
at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.TTFParser.parse(TTFParser.java:106)
at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDType0Font.load(PDType0Font.java:79)

How do we convert Noto cjk otf font to ttf with loca available?

You can extract fonts from an OpenType collection, and then open such font to export it with TrueType based outlines.

This font is not a collection. I have exported it with options given in Legacy TrueType fonts section of your help file.
Could you please let me know how to include loca info? I am converting Google NotosansCJK-TC.otf to ttf. The ttf fails when using with pdfbox with “loca is mandatory” error

You mentioned TTC in the subject, so that was why I assumed it was an OpenType font collection. What do you mean with TTC?

I’ve just send you an email, so we can further look into this issue.
