Under Windows, use the Windows version of Kindletools to unpack the .bin file and 7Zip to extract fwo_rootfs.img file from the rootfs.img.gz file. At this point, check what version of 7Zip you are using. If you are using v15.09, you can open the fwo_rootfs.img file with 7Zip, browse to the fonts.cramfs.img file in usr/java/lib, open the fonts.cramfs.img file within 7Zip and extract the font files. See attached thumbnail as an example.
Somewheres between 7Zip v15.01 and v15.09, the ability to open Linux disk image and VMWare VMDK files was added. I went the Linux route since 7Zip v15 is still a beta and some comments about issues in the discussion thread. After I had both sets of font files, I compared the SHA1 checksums and they matched so I feel safe enough going with either method.
And yes, computers are my favourite toys.
