+.SH NAME
+tfm2ofont \- convert tfm files to old troff compatible width tables
+.SH ORIGIN
+TRW
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+tfm2ofont
+.B [ -s ]
+file...
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IR Tfm2ofont (1)
+converts tfm files to old
+troff compatible width tables (C program files) which can subsequently
+be compiled
+and used with troff.
+A file is created with the same name as the tfm file with the `.tfm' extension
+removed, `ft' prepended and `.c' appended.
+.PP
+The
+.B -s
+flag causes the font(s) to be considered special.
+.PP
+.IR Otroff (1)
+scales the width of characters depending on the size currently in use.
+So, if a 5 point font is being used, the width is halved.
+Because of this, you cannot create a separate font with reshaped characters
+for five points with
+METAFONT.
+\*(TX allows you to do this though.
