Michael, .otf describes a wrapper that can cloak either a PS or TT
font. (CFF is also a descriptor for PostScript fonts.) If FC really
only natively edits TT, then you really should feed it TT - - i.e.
fonts from Microsoft. But I can hardly believe this to be the case.
Checked their forum and found this:
*When you open a PostScript based OpenType font (usually a font file
with .otf extension) in FontCreator, it is automatically converted to
a TrueType based font. This conversion does remove all hinting data.*
