- NAME
- tftopl - convert font metric (tfm) files to property list
- format
-
- SYNOPSIS
- tftopl tfm_file_name pl_file_name
-
- DESCRIPTION
- The tftopl program translates a (program-oriented) font
- metric file to a (human-oriented) property list file. Thus,
- you can edit the contents of the TFM files, if the font
- designer has not done his or her job properly, or if you're
- encountering strange difficulties, or if you're just curi-
- ous. It also serves as a TFM-file validating program,i.e.,
- if no error messages are given, the input file is correct.
-
- Both the tfm_file_name and the pl_file_name must be com-
- plete. No adding of default extensions or path searching is
- done.

- the TeXware technical report, available from the TeX Users
- Group. Howard Trickey and Pavel Curtis originally ported it
- to Unix.
