NAME
pbmtopk - convert a portable bitmap into a packed (PK)
format font
SYNOPSIS
pbmtopk pkfile[.pk] tfmfile[.tfm] resolution [-s designsize]
[-p num param...] [-C codingscheme] [-F family] [-f optfile]
[-c num] [-W width] [-H height] [-D depth] [-I ital] [-h
horiz] [-v vert] [-x xoff] [-y yoff] [pbmfile]...
DESCRIPTION
Reads portable bitmaps as input, and produces a packed (PK)
font file and a TFM (TeX font metric) file as output. The
resolution parameter indicates the resolution of the font,
in dots per inch. If the filename "-" is used for any of the
filenames, the standard input stream (or standard output
where appropriate) will be used.
OPTIONS
-s designsize
Sets the design size of the font, in TeX's points
(72.27pt to the inch). The default design size is 1.
The TFM parameters are given as multiples of the design
size.
-p num param...
Sets the first num font parameters for the font. The
first seven parameters are the slant, interword
spacing, interword space stretchability, interword
space shrinkability, x-height, quad width, and post-
sentence extra space of the font. Math and symbol fonts
may have more parameters; see The TeXbook for a list of
these. Reasonable default values are chosen for
parameters which are not specified.
-C codingscheme
Sets the coding scheme comment in the TFM file.
-F family
Sets the font family comment in the TFM file.
-f optfile
Reads the file optfile, which should contain a lines of
the form:
filename xoff yoff horiz vert width height depth ital
The pbm files specified by the filename parameters are
inserted consecutively in the font with the specified
attributes. If any of the attributes are omitted, or
replaced with "*", a default value will be calculated
from the size of the bitmap. The settings of the -W,

-H, -D, -I, -h, -v, -x, and -y options do not affected
characters created in this way. The character number
can be changed by including a line starting with "=",
followed by the new number. Lines beginning with "%"
or "#" are ignored.
-c num
Sets the character number of the next bitmap
encountered to num.
-W width
Sets the TFM width of the next character to width (in
design size multiples).
-H height
Sets the TFM height of the next character to height (in
design size multiples).
-D depth
Sets the TFM depth of the next character to depth (in
design size multiples).
-I ital
Sets the italic correction of the next character to
ital (in design size multiples).
-h horiz
Sets the horizontal escapement of the next character to
horiz (in pixels).
-v vert
Sets the vertical escapement of the next character to
vert (in pixels).
-x xoff
Sets the horizontal offset of the next character to
xoff (in pixels).
-y yoff
Sets the vertical offset of the next character to yoff
(in pixels, from the top row).
