NAME¶
ovf2ovp - convert virtual font file and associated font metrics to property-list formatSYNOPSIS¶
ovf2ovp [options] ovfname[.ovf] [ofmname[.ofm] [ovpfile[.ovp]]]DESCRIPTION¶
ovf2ovp translates a virtual font (OVF) file, ovfname, and its companion font metric (OFM) file, ofmname, into a human-readable property-list format. The program writes to standard output (by default) or to a file specified as ovpname.The program also works with TeX VF and TFM files, producing TeX VPL files.
OPTIONS¶

- output character codes according to type, either `hex', `octal' or `ascii'. Default is `hex'; `ascii' says to use ASCII for letters and digits, hex for all else.
- -char-format=stype
- output character codes according to stype, either `num' or `ascii'. Default is `num'; `ascii' as in -charcode-format. (These two redundant options both exist only for historical compatibility.)
