NAME
       vftovp  -  convert  virtual  font  (vf) files to virtual property lists
       (vpl)

SYNOPSIS
       vftovp [OPTIONS] vf_name[.vf] [tfm_name[.tfm] [vpl_name[.vpl]]]

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive.	The complete  documen‐
       tation  for this version of TeX can be found in the info file or manual
       Web2C: A TeX implementation.

       The vftovp program translates a (program-oriented)  virtual  font  file
       and  its	 accompanying TeX font metric file to a (human-oriented) prop‐
       erty list file.	Thus, the virtual font can be edited,  and  its	 exact
       contents	 can  be  displayed mnemonically.  It also serves as a VF-file
       validating program; if no error messages are given, the input files are
       correct.

       The filenames are extended with the appropriate extension if necessary.

OPTIONS
       -charcode-format=format
	      The  argument format specifies how character codes are output in
	      the VPL file.  By default, only letters and  digits  are	output
	      using the C integer code (i.e., in ASCII); the others are output
	      in octal.	 (Unless the font's coding scheme starts with TeX math
	      sy  or TeX math ex, when all are output in octal.)  If format is
	      ascii, all character codes that correspond  to  graphic  charac‐
	      ters,  besides  the  left	 and  right parentheses, are output in
	      ASCII.  On the other hand, if format  is	octal,	all  character
	      codes are output in octal.

       -verbose
	      Without  this option, vftovp operates silently.  With it, a ban‐
	      ner and progress report are printed on stdout.

ENVIRONMENT
       vftovp looks for vf_name using the environment  variable	 VFFONTS.   If
       that is not set, it uses the variable TEXFONTS.	If that is not set, it
       uses the system default.

       See tex(1) for the details of the searching.

AUTHORS
       Donald E. Knuth wrote the program, based in part on an  idea  of	 David
       Fuchs, starting with the code for tftopl(1).  Karl Berry adapted it for
       compilation with web2c.
