TTFTOTYPE42(1) General Commands Manual TTFTOTYPE42(1) NAME
ttftotype42 - create PostScript Type 42 wrapper of TrueType font SYNOPSIS
ttftotype42 [input [output]] DESCRIPTION
Ttftotype42 converts TrueType or TrueType-flavored OpenType font programs into PostScript Type 42 format, which is a wrapper for the True- Type outlines. This conversion preserves all outlines and hint information from the original TrueType font. The Type 42 wrapper uses glyph names identical to those expected by pdflatex(1) or otftotfm(1), so encoding files suitable for TrueType fonts and pdflatex will also work for the Type 42 fonts and dvips(1). 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
-o file, --output file Write output font to file instead of the standard output. -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. SEE ALSO
