fc-cache

FC-CACHE(1)															       FC-CACHE(1)

NAME

       fc-cache - build font information cache files

SYNOPSIS

       fc-cache [ -fsvV? ] [ --force ] [ --system-only ] [ --verbose ] [ --version ] [ --help ] [ dirs ]

DESCRIPTION

       fc-cache  scans the font directories on the system and builds font information cache files for applications using fontconfig for their font
       handling.

       If directory arguments are not given, fc-cache uses each directory in the current font configuration. Each directory is	scanned  for  font
       files  readable by FreeType.  A cache is created which contains properties of each font and the associated filename.  This cache is used to
       speed up application startup when using the fontconfig library.

       Note that fc-cache must be executed once per architecture to generate font information customized for that architecture.  On  a	subsequent
       run, fc-cache will augment the cache information files with the information for the new architecture.

OPTIONS

       This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').  A summary of options is included
       below.

       -f --force
	      Force re-generation of apparently up-to-date cache files, overriding the timestamp checking.

       -s --system-only
	      Only scan system-wide directories, omitting the places located in the user's home directory.

       -v --verbose
	      Display status information while busy.

       -? --help
	      Show summary of options.

       -V --version
	      Show version of the program and exit.

       dirs   A list of directories to scan for fonts.

FILES

       fonts.cache-2
	      These files are generated by fc-cache and contain maps from file names to font properties. They are read by the  fontconfig  library
	      at application startup to locate appropriate fonts.

SEE ALSO

       fc-list (1).
