description

ovf2ovp translates a virtual font (OVF) file, OVFNAME, and its companion 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[:at:]ens[:dot:]fr> (mailing list). You should also check to see if the bug is also in vftovp(1).

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.
