DESCRIPTION

       composeglyphs  is  a  script to generate either an encoding vector or a new font for postscript.  It requires a pre-existing AFM and allows
       for the use of composite characters that that AFM does not already provide.

	      The base encoding AFM to use.

       -E encoding.ps
	      The encoding vector to output.

       -i input.afm
	      The AFM of the original font.

       -o output.ps
	      The font program to generate.

       -c composite.afm
	      The AFM containing supplementary composite character information.

       -n newname
	      The name of the new font.

       -t target_encoding.afm
	      The target encoding.

       -a output.afm
	      The name of the AFM file to generate.
