OVF2OVP(27 April 2015)					OVF2OVP(27 April 2015)

NAME
       ovf2ovp	-  convert  a virtual font file and its associated font metric
       file into property-list format

SYNOPSIS
       ovf2ovp [OPTIONS] OVFNAME[.ovf] [OFMNAME[.ofm] [OVPFILE[.ovp]]]

DESCRIPTION
       ovf2ovp translates a virtual font (OVF) file, OVFNAME, and its  compan‐
       ion  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 VP
       files.  (ovf2ovp is based on the WEB source code for vftovp(1).)

OPTIONS
       -charcode-format=TYPE
	      output character codes according to TYPE, which  can  be	either
	      `hex'  or	 `ascii'.  Default is `hex'.  ascii specifes all ASCII
	      letters and digits; hex gets you everything else.

       -help  display a brief summary of syntax and options

       -verbose
	      display progress reports

       -version
	      output version information and exit

FILES
       OVPFILE
	      Omega Virtual Property List file

       OFMNAME
	      Omega Font Metric file

       OVFNAME
	      Omega Virtual Font file

BUGS
       None known, but report any found to <omega@ens.fr> (mailing list).  You

AUTHOR
       According to the WEB documentation:

	      VFtoVP is an extended version of the program  TFtoPL,  which  is
	      part  of	the standard tex()ware library.	 The idea of a virtual
	      font was inspired by the work of David R. Fuchs who  designed  a
	      similar  set  of	conventions  in 1984 while developing a device
	      driver for ArborText, Inc.  He wrote a somewhat similar  program
	      called AMFtoXPL.
