T1DOTLESSJ(1)						      General Commands Manual						     T1DOTLESSJ(1)

NAME

       t1dotlessj - create a dotless-j PostScript Type 1 font

SYNOPSIS

       t1dotlessj [OPTIONS...]	font [outputfile]

DESCRIPTION

       T1dotlessj  creates  a  PostScript  Type 1 font whose only character is a dotless 'j' matching the input font's design.	It works simply by
       removing the dot from the input font's 'j'.  The output font has three characters: '.notdef', 'space', and 'uni0237',  where  'uni0237'	is
       the  dotless  'j'.   The  command  fails  if  the input font already has a dotless 'j' character, or if there seems to be no dot to remove.
       T1dotlessj writes the created PFA or PFB font to the standard output (but see the --output option); if no input file is supplied, it  reads
       a PFA or PFB font from the standard input.

OPTIONS

       --output=file, -o file
	    Send output to file instead of standard output.

       --pfb, -b
	    Output a PFB font.	This is the default.

       --pfa, -a
	    Output a PFA font.

       --name=name, -n name
	    Set the output font's PostScript name to name.  The default is InputFontNameLCDFJ.

       -q, --quiet
	    Do not generate any error messages.

       -h, --help
	    Print usage information and exit.

       -v, --version
	    Print the version number and some short non-warranty information and exit.

RETURN VALUES

       T1dotlessj exits with one of the following values:

       0    A dotless-j font was successfully generated.

       1    The font already contained a dotless-j character.

       2    The font's "j" character had no dot to remove.

       3    The font had no "j" character.

       >3   An error occurred.
