For all three conversions you need to use the following statements:

 
    package com.aspose.font;

    import java.io.FileOutputStream;
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.nio.file.Files;
    import java.nio.file.Paths;

    import com.aspose.font.ByteContentStreamSource;
    import com.aspose.font.FileSystemStreamSource;
    import com.aspose.font.Font;
    import com.aspose.font.FontDefinition;
    import com.aspose.font.FontFileDefinition;
    import com.aspose.font.FontSavingFormats;
    import com.aspose.font.FontType;
    import com.aspose.font.TtfFont;

Convert Type1 to TTF

Fulfill the actions written below to tranform Type one to True Type Font:

1. Open Type1 font.
2. Apply the output settings for the Type1 font.
3. Fulfill the conversion.

 
    // Open Type 1 font
    String fontPath = Paths.get(getDataDir(),"Courier.pfb").toString();
    FontDefinition fontDefinition = new FontDefinition(FontType.Type1, new FontFileDefinition("pfb", new FileSystemStreamSource(fontPath)));
    Font font = Font.open(fontDefinition);

    // Ttf output settings
    String outPath = Paths.get(getOutputDir(), "Type1ToTtf_out1.ttf").toString();
    FileOutputStream outStream = new FileOutputStream(outPath);

    // Convert type1 to ttf
    font.saveToFormat(outStream, FontSavingFormats.TTF);

Convert font formats from Type 1 to Woff

For this you will need to take the next steps:

1. Open Type1 font.
2. Add the output settings.
3. Fulfill the conversion.

 
    // Open Type 1 font
    byte[] fontMemoryData = Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(getDataDir(), "Courier.pfb"));
    FontDefinition fontDefinition = new FontDefinition(FontType.Type1, new FontFileDefinition("pfb", new ByteContentStreamSource(fontMemoryData)));
    Font font = Font.open(fontDefinition);

    // Woff output settings
    String outPath = Paths.get(getOutputDir(), "Type1ToWoff_out3.ttf").toString();
    FileOutputStream outStream = new FileOutputStream(outPath);

    // Convert type1 to woff
    font.saveToFormat(outStream, FontSavingFormats.WOFF);

Convert Type 1 to WOFF2

Follow the written below algorithm to convert the fonts:

1. Open Type1 font.
2. Notify the next output settings.
3. Fulfill the conversion.

 
    // Open Type 1 font
    byte[] fontMemoryData = Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(getDataDir(), "Courier.pfb"));
    FontDefinition fontDefinition = new FontDefinition(FontType.Type1, new FontFileDefinition("pfb", new ByteContentStreamSource(fontMemoryData)));
    Font font = Font.open(fontDefinition);

    // Woff2 output settings
    String outPath = Paths.get(getOutputDir(), "Type1ToWoff2_out4.ttf").toString();
    FileOutputStream outStream = new FileOutputStream(outPath);

    // Convert type1 to woff2
    font.saveToFormat(outStream, FontSavingFormats.WOFF2);
