Piece styles as TTF #133

I see you have Cburnett's chess pieces in Lucas Chess. Unfortunately, they're in SVG format, so that means I can't use them in other chess GUIs.
Is there an easy method to create a TTF file out of Cburnett's SVG files?

You could use FontForge.
It is easy but laborious.

Easy but laborious!? You can't say that! Those words are complete opposite of each other!

Better, it is not complicated.
And whether it is more or less laborious will depend on your ability, and your demands. In my case it is very laborious

Does it matter where I place the different pieces in the font grid?

I don't know, but I think so.
