Welcome Fred!

The ttf2lff tool is part of the build for all OS, but it is not deployed, neither as part of LibreCAD package, nor standalone.

I've converted Roboto-Thin for you, so you can test if it is satisfying for you.
robotothin.lff

LibreCAD supports only outline fonts. There are two options for solid letters:
1) hatch
- explode text
- select a single letter (e.g. with window select)
- apply a solid hatch
- repeat for each letter
2) line width
- change the layer line width until all gaps are closed

Method 2 may work well for thin fonts, but for regular fonts the line width will probably be too much and the letters become too rounded.
