I downloaded some retro font VSD didn't have. I just purchased
WEBSITE FONT thinking I could import my retro font into that
software then use it on one of websites. No luck. WEBSITE FONT
indicates my import file needs to be in XML or SWF format. The
file I want to import is a TRUE TYPE FONT FILE I downloaded off
a free font site. How do I convert it so WEBSITE FONT
will recognize it and import it to WEBSITE FONT ?

I don't have the software in front of me, but I believe Web Font actually includes the font-maker conversion tool. There's a button for activating it on one of the toolbar menus.

Okay, to get closure on my comment. In Website Font I clicked the button to import a font and the software took me to the download page for the free font importer Cary linked in above...so yes, you still need to download and install it in order to import TrueType fonts.
