Type 1 Export Terminal
If the Open Type 1 Export Terminal option is switched on and you save a
font in Type 1 (Multiple Master or not) format, the following dialog box
appears:
As you can see, this dialog box previews and allows you to edit text data
contained in the “open” and “private” sections of the exporting Type 1 font
file. Use the Select a data section control to choose the part of the Type
1 font file that you want to edit and modify the text in the edit field below.
Note that there is no external control of changes you make in the export
terminal. Use it only if you really know what you are doing or you may
create a font which will not only be unusable, but can even crash your
operating system.
Refer to the Type 1 font format specification

for information about the contents of the Type 1 font file.
