VFTOVP(1L)

NAME
vftovp - convert virtual font (vf) files to virtual property list

SYNOPSIS
vftovp vf_file_name tfm_file_name vpl_file_name

DESCRIPTION
VFtoVP translates a (program-readable) virtual font file and its accompanying font metric file to a (human-readable) property list file. Thus, the virtual font can be edited, and its exact contents can be displayed mnemonically. VFtoVP also serves as a VF-file validating program; if no error messages are given, the input files are correct.

All three file names, vf_file_name, tfm_file_name, and vpl_file_name, must be complete. No adding of default extensions is done.

AUTHOR
Donald Knuth wrote the program, based in part on an idea of David Fuchs, starting with the code for TFtoPL.
