NAME
       fstobdf - BDF font generator

SYNOPSIS
       fstobdf -fn fontname [-option ...]

DESCRIPTION
       The fstobdf program reads a font from a font server and prints a BDF
       file on the standard output that may be used to recreate the font.
       This is useful in testing servers, debugging font metrics, and
       reproducing lost BDF files.

OPTIONS
       -server servername
               This option specifies the server from which the font should
               be read.  The client expects the environment variable
               FONTSERVER to contain the server to which it is to connect.
               Optionally, the -server command line option may be used in
               the absence of a FONTSERVER variable, or to override it.

       -fn fontname
               This option specifies the font for which a BDF file should be
               generated.
