t1mac (1)

NAME

       t1mac - translate a PFA or PFB PostScript 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  for-
       mat, 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 spec-
       ified 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.
