SYNOPSISt1reencode-e ENCODING [OPTIONS...] font [outputfile]
DESCRIPTION
T1reencode changes a PostScript Type 1 font's embedded encoding. The
reencoded font is written to the standard output (but see the --output
option). If no input font file is supplied, t1reencode reads a PFA or
PFB font from the standard input.
OPTIONS
--encoding=file, -e file
Read the encoding from file, which must contain an encoding in
dvips(1) format. Alternatively, file can be one of the following
special names, in which case the corresponding standard encoding
is used.
Name Source
StandardEncoding Adobe
ISOLatin1Encoding Adobe/ISO (synonym: ISO_8859_1_Encoding)

ISOLatin2Encoding ISO (synonym: ISO_8859_2_Encoding)

KOI8REncoding -
--encoding-text=text, -E text
Use the encoding in the text argument, which must be formatted as
a dvips(1) encoding. One of --encoding and --encoding-text must
be supplied.
--name=name, -n name
Set the output font's PostScript name to name. The default is the
input font name followed by the encoding's name.
--full-name=name, -N name
Set the output font's FullName to name. The default is the input
FullName followed by the encoding's name.
--output=file, -o file
Send output to file instead of standard output.
--pfb, -b
Output a PFB font. This is the default.
--pfa, -a
Output a PFA font.
-h, --help
Print usage information and exit.
--version
Print the version number and some short non-warranty information
and exit.
RETURN VALUES
T1reencode exits with value 0 if a reencoded font was successfully gen‐
erated, and 1 otherwise.
NOTES
T1reencode should be used only in special situations. It's generally
much better to use PostScript commands to reencode a font; for
instance, executing the PostScript commands to generate two differ‐
ently-encoded versions of a single font will take up much less memory
than loading two t1reencoded fonts.
EXAMPLES
This command reencodes Frutiger Roman in the ISO Latin 1 encoding. The
new font will have the PostScript name Frutiger-RomanISOLatin1Encoding.
t1reencode-e ISOLatin1Encoding FrutiRom.pfb \
-o FrutiRomISOL1.pfb
This series of commands, which use cfftot1(1) and otftotfm(1) as well
as t1reencode itself, generate a version of Warnock Pro Regular with
old-style figures in the slots for numbers (because of otftotfm's
-fonum option). The new font will be called WarnockPro-RegularOsF.
otftotfm -fonum WarnockPro-Regular.otf \
--output-encoding /tmp/osf.enc
cfftot1 WarnockPro-Regular.otf | t1reencode-e /tmp/osf.enc \
-n WarnockPro-RegularOsF -N "Warnock Pro Regular OsF" \
-o WarnoProRegOsF.pfb
