CH2VFT(1)                   UNIX System V(84/04/07)                   CH2VFT(1)


NAME
      ch2vft - Font translation to vfonts (RST format) from character format.

SYNOPSIS
      ch2vft [ -i  -s ]  charfile  > vfontfile

DESCRIPTION
      Takes input from charfile (which must be in the format written by
      xxx2ch), converts to rst format and writes to stdout.  If charfile is
      missing, stdin is read.  The -i flag tells ch2rst to ignore the character
      codes at the start of each glyph definition, and pack the glyphs in
      consecutive code positions starting with 0.  The -s flag forces ch2vft to
      include the whole bit-map that defines the glyph.  Normally, it is
      trimmed of white space.  This is usefull for making stipple patterns of
      fixed size.
