I did:

$ otftotfm -e texnansx VectoraLTPro-Roman.otf 
I had to round some heights by 15.0000000 units.
I had to round some depths by 2.5000000 units.

VectoraLTPro-Roman--texnansx--base VectoraLTPro-Roman "AutoEnc_qgsbi4r5qdxlqihh5jz4i62joh ReEncodeFont" <[a_qgsbi4.enc <VectoraLTPro-Roman.pfb


and:


\font\myfont=VectoraLTPro-Roman at 10pt

\myfont hallo
