vrm2rtfont



PURPOSE

Converts a standard AIX font file to RT PC rtx font format.

SYNTAX


vrm2rtfont --- aixfile --- rtxfile ---|


DESCRIPTION

Before any of the standard fonts provided with the AIX Operating System can be
used with the X-Windows program, they must be converted to the X-Windows' rtx
font file-format.  This command takes an AIX font file as input and converts
the file to rtx format.  This format can be used with X-Windows on PS/2
displays.

EXAMPLES

To convert the AIX font file /etc/vtm/itl1.9x20 to an rtx font file:

  vrm2rtfont /etc/vtm/itl1.9x20  /usr/lpp/fonts/Itl14.500

Note how the output file name conforms to the rtx naming convention.

FILES

/etc/vtm         Contains AIX fonts.
/usr/lpp/fonts   Contains fonts for other programs.
