The question that keeps bothering me is, how do you tell what the
encoding of a particular TTF file is?

Sometimes, these packages require that you tell it what the font "name"
and encoding are, even though I give it the exact path to the file.

Since nobody seems to have been able to answer my question above, do you
have any suggestions for better places to ask this question?

StackOverflow?

Actually, looks like someone beat you to it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5668901/php-how-to-read-title-of-font-from-ttf-file
