.TH UFOND 1 "23 October 2002"
.SH NAME
ufond \- convert UNIX font files into Macintosh format
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B ufond
.RB [ \-dfont ]
.RB [ \-macbin ]
.RB [ \-res ]
.RB [ \-script
.IR name ]
.BR fontfile ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
The program
.B ufond
takes UNIX font files,
wraps them in a Macintosh resource fork,
creates a family for them,
and then wraps that in a macbinary or binhex file.
.LP
The program reads one or more font files,
specified at the end of the command line,
using any of the following formats:
.TP
Glyph Bitmap Distribution (.bdf)
.TP
TrueType (.ttf)
.TP
OpenType (.otf)
.TP
\*(Ps Binary format (.pfb)
.LP
All fonts with the same font family name will be placed in the same FOND.
The program associates the name of a \*(Ps font with a bitmap font,
as well as handling bold, italic, and other variants properly.
.LP
The generated Macintosh files will be in one of three formats:
.TP
MacBinary (default)
.TP
dfont (data fork resource file format, used by MacOS X)
.TP
bare resource fork (you have to know how to transform this into a real resource fork)
.LP
The program normally assumes that your fonts are in the roman script system.
If this is not true you may specify a script directly.
The program knows the names of a few scripts
(greek, cyrillic, hebrew, arabic)
which may be entered directly;
otherwise you must know the Macintosh script number.
