     BDFTOSNF(1)         X Version 11 (Release 4)          BDFTOSNF(1)



     NAME
          bdftosnf - BDF to SNF font compiler for X11

     SYNOPSIS
          bdftosnf [-p#] [-u#] [-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.  -u# 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.
