  .SH NAME
  fonttosfnt \- Wrap a bitmap font in a sfnt (TrueType) wrapper
  .SH SYNOPSIS
  .B fonttosfnt
  [
  .I options
  ]
  .B \-o
  .I file.ttf
  [
  .B \-\-
  ]
  .IR font ...
  .SH DESCRIPTION
  Wrap a bitmap font or a set of bitmap fonts in a sfnt (TrueType or
  OpenType) wrapper.
  .SH OPTIONS
  .TP
  .B \-v
  Be verbose.
  .TP 
  .B \-c
  Do not crop glyphs.  This usually increases file size, but may
  sometimes yield a modest decrease in file size for small character
  cell fonts (terminal fonts).
  .TP 
  .B \-b
  Write byte-aligned glyph data.  By default, unaligned data is written,
  which yields a smaller file size.
  .TP
  .B \-r
  Do not reencode fonts.  By default, fonts are reencoded to Unicode
  whenever possible.
  .TP 
  .BI \-g " n"
  Set the type of scalable glyphs that we write.  If
  .I n
  is 0, no scalable glyphs are written; this is legal but confuses
  most current software.  If
  .I n
  is 1, a single scalable glyph (the undefined glyph) is written; this
  is recommended, but triggers a bug in current versions of
  .BR FreeType .
  If
  .I n
  is 2 (the default), a sufficiently high number of blank glyphs are
  written, which works with
  .B FreeType
  but increases file size.
  .TP 
  .BI \-m " n"
  Set the type of scalable metrics that we write.  If
  .I n
  is 0, no scalable metrics are written, which may or may not be legal.
  If
  .I n
  is 1, full metrics for a single glyph are written, and only left
  sidebearing values are written for the other glyphs.  If
  .I n
  is 2, scalable metrics for all glyphs are written, which increases
  file size and is not recommended.  The default is 1.
  .TP
  .B \-\-
  End of options.
  .SH BUGS
  Some of the font-level values, notably sub- and superscript positions,
  are dummy values.
  .SH SEE ALSO
  X(7), Xserver(1), Xft(3x).

  The version of
  .B Fonttosfnt
  included in this X.Org Foundation release was originally written by
  Juliusz Chroboczek <jch@freedesktop.org> for the XFree86 project.
