BDFTOSNF(1)                          BSD                           BDFTOSNF(1)



NAME
     bdftosnf - BDF to SNF font compiler for X11

SYNOPSIS
     bdftosnf [-p#] [-s#] [-m] [-l] [-M] [-L] [-w] [-W] [-t] [-i] [bdf-file]

DESCRIPTION
     bdftosnf reads a Bitmap Distribution Format (BDF) font from the specified
     file (or from standard input if no file is specified) and writes an X11
     server normal font (SNF) to standard output.

OPTIONS
     -p#     Force the glyph padding to a specific number.  The legal values
             are 1, 2, 4, and 8.  -s# Force the scanline unit padding to a
             specific number.  The legal values are 1, 2, and 4.

     -m      Force the bit order to most significant bit first.

     -l      Force the bit order to least significant bit first.

     -M      Force the byte order to most significant bit first.

     -L      Force the byte order to least significant bit first.

     -w      Print warnings if the character bitmaps have bits set to one
             outside of their defined widths.

     -W      Print warnings for characters with an encoding of -1; the default
             is to silently ignore such characters.

     -t      Expand glyphs in "terminal-emulator" fonts to fill the bounding
             box.

     -i      Don't compute correct ink metrics for "terminal-emulator" fonts.
