Does freetype-go support TTF's embedded bitmap font feature?

I can't seem to load fonts generated using https://github.com/koron/bdf2ttf for example.

The README contains the following note, which I suspect answers your question:

It is an incomplete port:
  * It only supports TrueType fonts, and not Type 1 fonts nor bitmap fonts.
  * It only supports the Unicode encoding.
