NAME
       ttftotype42 - create PostScript Type 42 wrapper of TrueType font

SYNOPSIS
       ttftotype42 [input [output]]

DESCRIPTION
       Ttftotype42  converts  TrueType or TrueType-flavored OpenType font pro‐
       grams into PostScript Type 42 format, which is a wrapper for the	 True‐
       Type  outlines.	This conversion preserves all outlines and hint infor‐
       mation from the original TrueType font. The Type 42 wrapper uses	 glyph
       names  identical	 to  those  expected by pdflatex(1) or otftotfm(1), so
       encoding files suitable for TrueType fonts and pdflatex will also  work
       for  the	 Type 42 fonts and dvips(1).  If the file output is not speci‐
       fied output goes to the standard output.	 If  the  file	input  is  not
       specified input comes from the standard input.

OPTIONS
       -o file, --output file
	    Write output font to file instead of the standard output.

       -q, --quiet
	    Do not generate any error messages.

       -h, --help
	    Print usage information and exit.

       -v, --version
	    Print  the	version number and some short non-warranty information
	    and exit.
