(1) Kontakt for Mac can open any type of sound font
and save the individual samples.

If you don't have a PC or a friend near you that could
save you some money.

(2) Bismark free soundfont player also opens any
soundfont on the Mac:

http://homepage.mac.com/bismark/downloads.html

But it just plays them. He has a pay version which I
don't know if you can save it in a different format
and open it in EXS.
I could open sound fonts directly in EXS until version
6.xx the way it is described in the manual. I wonder
what has been changed since.

Best wishes
Jurgen
