BDFTOSNF(1)                     X11 R4.11MU05                    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.
