t1ascii - convert PostScript Type 1 font from binary to ASCII SYNOPSIS
t1ascii [-l length] [input [output]] DESCRIPTION
t1ascii converts Adobe Type 1 font programs in PFB (binary) format to PFA (hexadecimal) format. If the file output is not specified output goes to the standard output. If the file input is not specified input comes from the standard input. OPTIONS

The default is 64. --warnings, -w Warn when the input font contains lines longer than 255 characters.
