vftovp
VFTOVP(1) General Commands Manual VFTOVP(1) NAME
vftovp - convert virtual font (vf) files to virtual property lists (vpl) SYNOPSIS
vftovp [OPTIONS] vf_name[.vf] [tfm_name[.tfm] [vpl_name[.vpl]]] DESCRIPTION
This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete documentation for this version of TeX can be found in the info file or manual Web2C: A TeX implementation. The vftovp program translates a (program-oriented) virtual font file and its accompanying TeX font metric file to a (human-oriented) prop- erty list file. Thus, the virtual font can be edited, and its exact contents can be displayed mnemonically. It also serves as a VF-file validating program; if no error messages are given, the input files are correct. The filenames are extended with the appropriate extension if necessary. OPTIONS
-charcode-format=format The argument format specifies how character codes are output in the VPL file. By default, only letters and digits are output using the C integer code (i.e., in ASCII); the others are output in octal. (Unless the font's coding scheme starts with TeX math sy or TeX math ex, when all are output in octal.) If format is ascii, all character codes that correspond to graphic characters, besides the left and right parentheses, are output in ASCII. On the other hand, if format is octal, all character codes are output in octal. -verbose Without this option, vftovp operates silently. With it, a banner and progress report are printed on stdout. ENVIRONMENT
vftovp looks for vf_name using the environment variable VFFONTS. If that is not set, it uses the variable TEXFONTS. If that is not set, it uses the system default. See tex(1) for the details of the searching. SEE ALSO
pltotf(1), tftopl(1), vptovf(1). AUTHORS
Donald E. Knuth wrote the program, based in part on an idea of David Fuchs, starting with the code for tftopl(1). Karl Berry adapted it for compilation with web2c. Web2C 2012 19 December 1994 VFTOVP(1)
