Hello Bryan !

The pf3.0 PFB loader can only write pf3.0 PFB files. So, there isn't an
out-of-the-box way to do what you want. However, if you are willing to do a
little work:

Take the pf2.5 PFB loader source code and compile it under pf3.0. You can use
diff to find the differences between the pf2.5 and pf3.0 loaders. The result
is a loader that writes pf2.5 PFB files under pf3.0

You can find the PFB loader source under:
    /usr/share/Performer/src/lib/libpfdb/libpfpfb
