Is there any way to combine font files together? Say I have some eastern font files (Chinese, Korean, Japanese) etc and I'd like to combine them with a western (English) font, then export the combined file as a single .ttf?

I've heard that Adobe Framemaker can make this but is there any other way without Framemaker?

Is seems that you are referring to a Unicode TrueType font?

There are some fonts (such as Arial Unicode MS) that are mapped to the Universal Character Set or Unicode, which allows them to store a glyph for any Unicode / UCS character. If you create a font that supports this, you will be able to use one font for characters from multiple languages.

Font editing software can probably be used to combine glyphs from multiple fonts to produce a new font (where font licences permit)

e.g. Fontforge, Fontographer, etc

The task may require you to learn more about fonts than you wish to know.
