There are OpenType and TrueType IPA fonts with the same name (including extension). I don't think it is reasonable. If it is really necessary to add ".ttf" extension for OpenType IPA fonts, I think it is necessary to rename them, for example, like "opentype-ipam.ttf". # This might be a problem of the upstream, however. > One should not use file name extension to > find the font, instead use the font name and something like fontconfig > to search for the file associated with the font name.

Under a system installed OpenType and TrueType IPA fonts with the same name (including extension), I don't know how one can find exclusively OpneType IPA (or TrueType IPA) fonts.
