.TH LUMPER 1 "3 Febuary 2004"
.SH NAME
lumper \- lump a bunch of mac font resources into the same file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B lumper
.BR  font1.dfont
.BR  font2.dfont
.BR  ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
The program
.B lumper
adds  to  the  file  font1.dfont all the mac font
resources ('sfnt', 'FOND', 'NFNT') found in the subsequent  files.   If
there  are any resource id conflicts it will generate a new resource id
(and fix up any references to that id in the 'FOND' resources).
.LP
The first file should be a mac .dfont file, subsequent  files  may  be
macbinary  files  (.bin),  binhex files (.hqx), bare Macintosh resource
forks, or data fork resource files (.dfont, as used  by  MacOS  X).
.LP
The  mac 'FOND' resource is somewhat limited in the styles permitted in
a mac font family. Now-a-days a mac font family seems to come in a sin-
gle file with those fonts that fit into a traditional mac family in one
FOND and several other FONDs to accomidate the other styles.   Thus  if
you have the styles:
.br
.in +2n
 Regular, Bold, Italic, BoldItalic, Condensed, Oblique, Light, LightItalic
.in -2n
.br
for a font "Foo", you might find a file called Foo.dfont containing the
following FONDs:
.in +4n
.ti -2n
.br
Foo
.br
Regular
.br
Bold
.br
Italic
.br
BoldItalic
.br

.br
.ti -2n
