NAME
gftopk - convert generic font files to packed font files
SYNOPSIS
gftopk [ -v ] gf_file_name [ pk_file_name ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The com-
plete documentation for this version of TeX can be found in
the info file or manual Web2C: A TeX implementation.
The gftopk program converts a generic font file output by,
for example, mf(1), to a packed font file for use by DVI-
reading programs. Packed font files (pk files) are much
smaller than the corresponding gf files, so they are gen-
erally the font format of choice.
The gf_file_name on the command line must be complete.
Because the resolution is part of the extension, it would
not make sense to append a default extension as is done with
TeX or DVI-reading software. The pk_file_name defaults to
the same (stripped) name as gf_file_name, and it is placed
in the current working directory with the pk suffix replac-
ing gf. For example, the input file cmr10.300gf would
become cmr10.300pk.
OPTIONS
Unless the -v switch is given, gftopk operates silently.
With -v, the version number of the program and statistics
about the packing are output to stdout.
ENVIRONMENT
gftopk looks for gf_file_name first in the current direc-
tory. If it is not present there, it uses the environment
variable GFFONTS. If that is not set, it uses the variable
TEXFONTS. If that is not set, it uses the system default.
See tex(1) for the details of the searching.
