t1mac(1)

NAME

   t1mac  -  translate  a PFA or PFB PostScript Type 1 font into Macintosh
   format

SYNOPSIS

   t1mac [--macbinary | --applesingle | --appledouble | --binhex |  --raw]
   [--filename name] [input [output]]

DESCRIPTION

   t1mac  reads a PFA (hexadecimal) or PFB (binary) PostScript Type 1 font
   file and generates an equivalent Macintosh Type 1 font file. The output
   file  can  be  in  MacBinary  II,  AppleSingle,  AppleDouble, or BinHex
   format, or it can be a raw resource fork. The default is MacBinary  II;
   use  an  option to choose a different format. If the output file is not
   specified output goes to the standard output.

   WARNING: The output of t1mac is not sufficient to use the  font,  since
   Macintoshes can't read raw Type 1 fonts. You will need to create a font
   suitcase containing bitmap fonts if you do not have such a suitcase for
   the font already.  t1mac cannot help you do this.

OPTIONS

   --raw, -r
        Indicates that output should be a raw resource fork.

   --macbinary
        Indicates  that output should be in MacBinary I or II format. This
        is the default.

   --applesingle
        Indicates that output should be in AppleSingle format.

   --appledouble
        Indicates that output should be in AppleDouble format.

   --binhex
        Indicates that output should be in BinHex 4.0 format.

   --filename=name, -n name
        Sets the Macintosh filename  of  the  output  font  to  name.  The
        default  is  to  construct the filename from the font's name using
        established Macintosh conventions. This option is not useful  when
        output is a raw resource fork.
