-.SH "NAME"
-TTF2PT1 \- A True Type to PostScript Type 1 Font Converter
-.SH "SYNOPSIS"
-\f(CWttf2pt1 \fI[-options] ttffont.ttf [Fontname]\fR\fR
-.PP
-or
-.PP
-\f(CWttf2pt1 \fI[-options] ttffont.ttf -\fR\fR
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-Ttf2pt1 is a font converter from the True Type format (and some other formats
-supported by the FreeType library as well) to the Adobe Type1 format.
-.PP
-The versions 3.0 and later got rather extensive post-processing algorithm that
-brings the converted fonts to the requirements of the Type1 standard, tries to
-correct the rounding errors introduced during conversions and some simple
-kinds of bugs that are typical for the public domain TTF fonts. It
-also generates the hints that enable much better rendering of fonts in
-small sizes that are typical for the computer displays. But everything
-has its price, and some of the optimizations may not work well for certain
-fonts. That's why the options were added to the converter, to control
-the performed optimizations.
-.SH "OPTIONS"
-The first variant creates the file \f(CWFontname.pfa\fR (or \f(CWFontname.pfb\fR if the
-option \*(L'\fB\-b\fR\*(R' was used) with the converted font and \f(CWFontname.afm\fR with the
-font metrics, the second one prints the font or another file (if the option
-\&\*(R'\fB\-G\fR\*(R' was used) on the standard output from where it can be immediately
-piped through some filter. If no \f(CWFontname\fR is specified for the first
-variant, the name is generated from \f(CWttffont\fR by replacing the \f(CW.ttf\fR
-filename suffix.
-.PP
-Most of the time no options are neccessary (with a possible exception
-of \*(L'\fB\-e\fR'). But if there are some troubles with the resulting font, they
-may be used to control the conversion.
-The \fBoptions\fR are:
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-a\fR\fR \- Include all the glyphs from the source file into the converted
-file. If this option is not specified then only the glyphs that have
-been assigned some encoding are included, because the rest of glyphs
-would be inaccessible anyway and would only consume the disk space.
-But some applications are clever enough to change the encoding on
-the fly and thus use the other glyphs, in this case they could
-benefit from using this option. But there is a catch: the X11 library
-has rather low limit for the font size. Including more glyphs increases
-the file size and thus increases the chance of hitting this limit.
-See \f(CWapp/X11/README\fR for the description of a
-patch to X11 which fixes this problem.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-b\fR\fR \- Encode the resulting font to produce a ready \f(CW.pfb\fR file.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-d \fIsuboptions\fR\fR\fR \- Debugging options. The suboptions are:
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBa\fR\fR \- Print out the absolute coordinates of dots in outlines. Such
-a font can not be used by any program (that's why this option is
-incompatible with \*(L'\fB\-e\fR') but it has proven to be a valuable debuging
-information.
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBr\fR\fR \- Do not reverse the direction of outlines. The \s-1TTF\s0 fonts have
-the standard direction of outlines opposite to the Type1 fonts. So
-they should be reversed during proper conversion. This option
-may be used for debugging or to handle a \s-1TTF\s0 font with wrong
-direction of outlines (possibly, converted in a broken way from
-a Type1 font). The first signs of the wrong direction are the
-letters like \*(L"P\*(R" or \*(L"B\*(R" without the unpainted \*(L"holes\*(R" inside.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-e\fR\fR \- Assemble the resulting font to produce a ready \f(CW.pfa\fR file.
-.Sp
-[ S.B.: Personally I don't think that this option is particularly useful.
-The same result may be achieved by piping the unassembled data
-through t1asm, the Type 1 assembler. And, anyways, it's good to
-have the t1utils package handy. But Mark and many users think that
-this functionality is good and it took not much time to add this option. ]
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-F\fR\fR \- Force the Unicode encoding: any type of \s-1MS\s0 encoding specified
-in the font is ignored and the font is treated like it has Unicode
-encoding. \fB\s-1WARNING\s0:\fR this option is intended for buggy fonts
-which actually are in Unicode but are marked as something else. The
-effect on the other fonts is unpredictable.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-G \fIsuboptions\fR\fR\fR \- File generation options. The suboptions may be lowercase
-or uppercase, the lowercase ones disable the generation of particular
-files, the corresponding uppercase suboptions enable the generation of the
-same kind of files. If the result of ttf2pt1 is requested to be printed on
-the standard output, the last enabling suboption of \fB\-G\fR determines
-which file will be written to the standard output and the rest of files
-will be discarded. For example, \fB\-G A\fR will request the \s-1AFM\s0 file.
-The suboptions to disable/enable the generation of the files are:
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBf/F\fR\fR \- The font file. Depending on the other options this file
-will have one of the suffixes \f(CW.t1a\fR, \f(CW.pfa\fR or \f(CW.pfb\fR. If the conversion result
-is requested on the standard output ('\f(CW-\fR\*(R' is used as the output file name)
-then the font file will also be written there by default, if not overwritten
-by another suboption of \fB\-G\fR.
-\fBDefault: enabled\fR
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBa/A\fR\fR \- The Adobe font metrics file (\f(CW.afm\fR).
-\fBDefault: enabled\fR
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBe/E\fR\fR \- The dvips encoding file (\f(CW.enc\fR).
-\fBDefault: disabled\fR
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-l \fIlanguage\fR[+\fIargument\fR]\fR\fR \- Extract the fonts for the specified language from a
-multi-language Unicode font. If this option is not used the converter
-tries to guess the language by the values of the shell variable \s-1LANG\s0.
-If it is not able to guess the language by \s-1LANG\s0 it tries all the
-languages in the order they are listed.
-.Sp
-After the plus sign an optional argument for the language extractor
-may be specified. The format of the argument is absolutely up to
-the particular language converter. The primary purpose of the
-argument is to support selection of planes for the multi-plane
-Eastern encodings but it can also be used in any other way. The
-language extractor may decide to add the plane name in some form
-to the name of the resulting font. None of the currently supported
-languages make any use of the argument yet.
-.Sp
-As of now the following languages are supported:
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWlatin1\fR \- for all the languages using the Latin-1 encoding
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWlatin2\fR \- for the Central European languages
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWlatin4\fR \- for the Baltic languages
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWlatin5\fR \- for the Turkish language
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWcyrillic\fR \- for the languages with Cyrillic alphabet
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWrussian\fR \- historic synonym for cyrillic
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWbulgarian\fR \- historic synonym for cyrillic
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWadobestd\fR \- for the AdobeStandard encoding used by TeX
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWplane+\fIargument\fR\fR \- to select one plane from a multi-byte encoding
-.Sp
-The argument of the \*(L"\f(CWplane\fR\*(R" language may be in one of three forms:
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWplane+\fBpid=\fR\fI<pid>\fR\fB,eid=\fR\fI<eid>\fR\fR
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWplane+\fBpid=\fR\fI<pid>\fR\fB,eid=\fR\fI<eid>\fR\fB,\fR\fI<plane_number>\fR\fR
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWplane+\fI<plane_number>\fR\fR
-.Sp
-Pid (\s-1TTF\s0 platform id) and eid (\s-1TTF\s0 encoding id) select a particular
-\s-1TTF\s0 encoding table in the original font. They are specified as decimal
-numbers. If this particular encoding table is not present in the font
-file then the conversion fails. The native ("ttf") front-end parser supports
-only pid=3 (Windows platform), the FreeType-based ("ft") front-end supports
-any platform. If pid/eid is not specified then the \s-1TTF\s0 encoding table is
-determined as usual: Unicode encoding if it's first or an 8-bit encoding
-if not (and for an 8-bit encoding the plane number is silently ignored).
-To prevent the converter from falling back to an 8-bit encoding, specify
-the Unicode pid/eid value explicitly.
-.Sp
-Plane_number is a hexadecimal (if starts with \*(L"\fB0x\fR") or decimal number.
-It gives the values of upper bytes for which 256 characters will be
-selected. If not specified, defaults to 0. It is also used as a font
-name suffix (the leading \*(L"0x\*(R" is not included into the suffix).
-.Sp
-\fB\s-1NOTE\s0:\fR
-You may notice that the language names are not uniform: some are the
-names of particular languages and some are names of encodings. This
-is because of the different approaches. The original idea was to
-implement a conversion from Unicode to the appropriate Windows
-encoding for a given language. And then use the translation tables
-to generate the fonts in whatever final encodings are needed. This
-would allow to pile together the Unicode fonts and the non-Unicode
-Windows fonts for that language and let the program to sort them out
-automatically. And then generate fonts in all the possible encodings
-for that language. An example of this approach is the Russian language
-support. But if there is no multiplicity of encodings used for some
-languages and if the non-Unicode fonts are not considered important
-by the users, another way would be simpler to implement: just provide
-only one table for extraction of the target encoding from Unicode
-and don't bother with the translation tables. The latin* \*(L"languages\*(R"
-are examples of this approach. If somebody feels that he needs the
-Type1 fonts both in Latin-* and Windows encodings he or she is absolutely
-welcome to submit the code to implement it.
-.Sp
-\fB\s-1WARNING\s0:\fR
-Some of the glyphs included into the AdobeStandard encoding are not
-included into the Unicode standard. The most typical examples of such
-glyphs are ligatures like \*(L'fi\*(R', \*(L'fl\*(R' etc. Because of this the font
-designers may place them at various places. The converter tries to
-do its best, if the glyphs have honest Adobe names and/or are
-placed at the same codes as in the Microsoft fonts they will be
-picked up. Otherwise a possible solution is to use the option \*(L'\fB\-L\fR\*(R'
-with an external map.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-L \fIfile\fR[+[pid=\fI<pid>\fR,eid=\fI<eid>\fR,][\fIplane\fR]]\fR\fR \- Extract the fonts for the specified
-language from a multi-language font using the map from this file. This is
-rather like the option \*(L'\fB\-l\fR\*(R' but the encoding map is not
-compiled into the program, it's taken from that file, so it's
-easy to edit. Examples of such files are provided in
-\f(CWmaps/adobe-standard-encoding.map\fR, \f(CWCP1250.map\fR. (\fB\s-1NOTE\s0:\fR
-the \*(L'standard encoding\*(R' map does not include all the glyphs of the
-AdobeStandard encoding, it's provided only as an example.) The
-description of the supported map formats is in the file
-\f(CWmaps/unicode-sample.map\fR.
-.Sp
-Likewise to \*(L'\fB\-l\fR\*(R', an argument may be specified after the map file
-name. But in this case the argument has fixed meaning: it selects the
-original \s-1TTF\s0 encoding table (the syntax is the same as in \*(L'\fB\-l plane\fR')
-and/or a plane of the map file. The plane name also gets added after dash
-to the font name. The plane is a concept used in the Eastern fonts with big
-number of glyphs: one \s-1TTF\s0 font gets divided into multiple Type1 fonts,
-each containing one plane of up to 256 glyphs. But with a little
-creativity this concept may be used for other purposes of combining
-multiple translation maps into one file. To extract multiple planes
-from a \s-1TTF\s0 font \f(CWttf2pt1\fR must be run multiple times, each time with
-a different plane name specified.
-.Sp
-The default original \s-1TTF\s0 encoding table used for the option \*(L'\fB\-L\fR\*(R' is
-Unicode. The map files may include directives to specify different original
-\s-1TTF\s0 encodings. However if the pid/eid pair is specified with
-it overrides any original encoding specified in the map file.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-m \fItype\fR=\fIvalue\fR\fR\fR \- Set maximal or minimal limits of resources.
-These limits control the the font generation by limiting the resources
-that the font is permitted to require from the PostScript interpreter.
-The currently supported types of limits are:
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBh\fR\fR \- the maximal hint stack depth for the substituted hints.
-The default value is 128, according to the limitation in X11. This seems to
-be the lowest (and thus the safest) widespread value. To display the
-hint stack depth required by each glyph in a \f(CW.t1a\fR file use the script
-\f(CWscripts/cntstems.pl\fR.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-O \fIsuboptions\fR\fR\fR \- Outline processing options. The suboptions
-may be lowercase or uppercase, the lowercase ones disable the features,
-the corresponding uppercase suboptions enable the same features.
-The suboptions to disable/enable features are:
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBb/B\fR\fR \- Guessing of the ForceBold parameter. This parameter helps
-the Type1 engine to rasterize the bold fonts properly at small sizes.
-But the algorithm used to guess the proper value of this flag makes
-that guess based solely on the font name. In rare cases that may cause
-errors, in these cases you may want to disable this guessing.
-\fBDefault: enabled\fR
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBh/H\fR\fR \- Autogeneration of hints. The really complex outlines
-may confuse the algorithm, so theoretically it may be useful
-sometimes to disable them. Although up to now it seems that
-even bad hints are better than no hints at all.
-\fBDefault: enabled\fR
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBu/U\fR\fR \- Hint substitution. Hint substitution is a technique
-permitting generation of more detailed hints for the rasterizer. It allows
-to use different sets of hints for different parts of a glyph and change
-these sets as neccessary during rasterization (that's why \*(L"substituted").
-So it should improve the quality of the fonts rendered at small sizes.
-But there are two catches: First, the X11 library has rather low limit for
-the font size. More detailed hints increase the file size and thus increase
-the chance of hitting this limit (that does not mean that you shall hit it
-but you may if your fonts are particularly big). This is especially
-probable for Unicode fonts converted with option \*(L'\fB\-a\fR\*(R', so you may want to
-use \*(L'\fB\-a\fR\*(R' together with \*(L'\fB\-Ou\fR\*(R'. See \f(CWapp/X11/README\fR for the description of
-a patch to X11 which fixes this problem. Second, some rasterizers (again,
-X11 is the typical example) have a limitation for total number of hints
-used when drawing a glyph (also known as the hint stack depth). If that
-stack overflows the glyph is ignored. Starting from version 3.22 \f(CWttf2pt1\fR
-uses algorithms to minimizing this depth, with the trade-off of slightly
-bigger font files. The glyphs which still exceed the limit set by option
-\&\*(R'\fB\-mh\fR\*(R' have all the substituted hints removed and only base hints left.
-The algorithms seem to have been refined far enough to make the fonts with
-substituted hints look better than the fonts without them or at least the
-same. Still if the original fonts are not well-designed the detailed
-hinting may emphasize the defects of the design, such as non-even thickness
-of lines. So provided that you are not afraid of the X11 bug the best idea
-would be to generate a font with this feature and without it, then compare
-the results using the program \f(CWother/cmpf\fR (see the description
-in \f(CWother/README\fR) and decide which one looks better.
-\fBDefault: enabled\fR
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBo/O\fR\fR \- Space optimization of the outlines\*(R' code. This kind of optimization
-never hurts, and the only reason to disable this feature is for comparison
-of the generated fonts with the fonts generated by the previous versions of
-converter. Well, it _almost_ never hurts. As it turned out there exist
-some brain-damaged printers which don't understand it. Actually this
-feature does not change the outlines at all. The Type 1 font manual
-provides a set of redundant operators that make font description shorter,
-such as \*(L'10 hlineto\*(R' instead of \*(L'0 10 rlineto\*(R' to describe a horizontal
-line. This feature enables use of these operators.
-\fBDefault: enabled\fR
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBs/S\fR\fR \- Smoothing of outlines. If the font is broken in some
-way (even the ones that are not easily noticeable), such smoothing
-may break it further. So disabling this feature is the first thing to be
-tried if some font looks odd. But with smoothing off the hint generation
-algorithms may not work properly too.
-\fBDefault: enabled\fR
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBt/T\fR\fR \- Auto-scaling to the 1000x1000 Type1 standard matrix. The
-\s-1TTF\s0 fonts are described in terms of an arbitrary matrix up to
-4000x4000. The converted fonts must be scaled to conform to
-the Type1 standard. But the scaling introduces additional rounding
-errors, so it may be curious sometimes to look at the font in its
-original scale.
-\fBDefault: enabled\fR
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fBw/W\fR\fR \- Glyphs\*(R' width corection. This option is designed to be
-used on broken fonts which specify too narrow widths for the
-letters. You can tell that a font can benefit from this option
-if you see that the characters are smashed together without
-any whitespace between them. This option causes the converter
-to set the character widths to the actual width of this character
-plus the width of a typical vertical stem. But on the other hand
-the well-designed fonts may have characters that look better if
-their widths are set slightly narrower. Such well-designed fonts
-will benefit from disabling this feature. You may want to convert
-a font with and without this feature, compare the results and
-select the better one. This feature may be used only on proportional
-fonts, it has no effect on the fixed-width fonts.
-\fBDefault: disabled\fR
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-p \fIparser_name\fR\fR\fR \- Use the specified front-end parser to read the font file.
-If this option is not used, ttf2pt1 selects the parser automatically based
-on the suffix of the font file name, it uses the first parser in its
-list that supports this font type. Now two parsers are supported:
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWttf\fR \- built-in parser for the ttf files (suffix \f(CW.ttf\fR)
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWbdf\fR \- built-in parser for the \s-1BDF\s0 files (suffix \f(CW.bdf\fR)
-.Sp
-\ \ \f(CWft\fR \- parser based on the FreeType-2 library (suffixes \f(CW.ttf\fR,
-\&\f(CW.otf\fR, \f(CW.pfa\fR, \f(CW.pfb\fR)
-.Sp
-The parser \f(CWft\fR is \fB\s-1NOT\s0\fR linked in by default. See \f(CWMakefile\fR
-for instructions how to enable it. We do no support this parser on
-Windows: probably it will work but nobody tried and nobody knows how
-to build it.
-.Sp
-The conversion of the bitmap fonts (such as \s-1BDF\s0) is simplistic yet,
-producing jagged outlines. When converting such fonts, it might be
-a good idea to turn off the hint substitution (using option \fB\-Ou\fR)
-because the hints produced will be huge but not adding much to the
-quality of the fonts.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-u \fInumber\fR\fR\fR \- Mark the font with this value as its
-UniqueID. The UniqueID is used by the printers with the hard disks
-to cache the rasterized characters and thus significantly
-speed-up the printing. Some of those printers just can't
-store the fonts without UniqueID on their disk.The problem
-is that the \s-1ID\s0 is supposed to be unique, as it name says. And
-there is no easy way to create a guaranteed unique \s-1ID\s0. Adobe specifies
-the range 4000000-4999999 for private IDs but still it's difficult
-to guarantee the uniqueness within it. So if you don't really need the
-UniqueID don't use it, it's optional. Luckily there are a few millions of
-possible IDs, so the chances of collision are rather low.
-If instead of the number a special value \*(L'\f(CW\fBA\fR\fR\*(R' is given
-then the converter generates the value of UniqueID automatically,
-as a hash of the font name. (\fB\s-1NOTE\s0:\fR in the version 3.22 the
-algorithm for autogeneration of UniqueID was changed to fit the values
-into the Adobe-spacified range. This means that if UniqueIDs were used
-then the printer's cache may need to be flushed before replacing the
-fonts converted by an old version with fonts converted by a newer version).
-A simple way to find if any of the fonts in a given directory have
-duplicated UniqueIDs is to use the command:
-.Sp
-\f(CW\ \ cat *.pf[ab] | grep UniqueID | sort | uniq -c | grep -v ' 1 '\fR
-.Sp
-Or if you use \f(CWscripts/convert\fR it will do that for you automatically
-plus it will also give the exact list of files with duplicate UIDs.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-v \fIsize\fR\fR\fR \- Re-scale the font to get the size of a typical uppercase
-letter somewhere around the specified size. Actually, it re-scales
-the whole font to get the size of one language-dependent letter to be
-at least of the specified size. Now this letter is \*(L"A\*(R" in all the
-supported languages. The size is specified in the points of the
-Type 1 coordinate grids, the maximal value is 1000. This is an
-experimental option and should be used with caution. It tries to
-increase the visible font size for a given point size and thus make
-the font more readable. But if overused it may cause the fonts to
-look out of scale. As of now the interesting values of size for
-this option seem to be located mostly between 600 and 850. This
-re-scaling may be quite useful but needs more experience to
-understand the balance of its effects.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\f(CW\fB-W \fIlevel\fR\fR\fR \- Select the verbosity level of the warnings.
-Currently the levels from 0 to 4 are supported. Level 0 means no warnings
-at all, level 4 means all the possible warnings. The default level is 3.
-Other levels may be added in the future, so using the level number 99 is
-recommended to get all the possible warnings. Going below level 2 is
-not generally recommended because you may miss valuable information about
-the problems with the fonts being converted.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\fBObsolete option:\fR
-\f(CW\fB-A\fR\fR \- Print the font metrics (.afm file) instead of the font on \s-1STDOUT\s0.
-Use \fB\-\s-1GA\s0\fR instead.
-.Ip "\(bu" 2
-\fBVery obsolete option:\fR
-.Sp
-The algorithm that implemented the forced fixed width had major
-flaws, so it was disabled. The code is still in the program and
-some day it will be refined and returned back. Meanwhile the
-option name \*(L'\fB\-f\fR\*(R' was reused for another option. The old version was:
-.Sp
-\f(CW\fB-f\fR\fR \- Don't try to force the fixed width of font. Normally the converter
-considers the fonts in which the glyph width deviates by not more
-than 5% as buggy fixed width fonts and forces them to have really
-fixed width. If this is undesirable, it can be disabled by this option.
-.PP
-The \f(CW.pfa\fR font format supposes that the description of the characters
-is binary encoded and encrypted. This converter does not encode or
-encrypt the data by default, you have to specify the option \*(L'\fB\-e\fR\*(R'
-or use the \f(CWt1asm\fR program to assemble (that means, encode and
-encrypt) the font program. The \f(CWt1asm\fR program that is included with
-the converter is actually a part of the \f(CWt1utils\fR package, rather old
-version of which may be obtained from
-.PP
-http://ttf2pt1.sourceforge.net/t1utils.tar.gz
-.PP
-Note that \f(CWt1asm\fR from the old version of that package won't work properly
-with the files generated by \f(CWttf2pt1\fR version 3.20 and later. Please use
-\f(CWt1asm\fR packaged with \f(CWttf2pt1\fR or from the new version \f(CWt1utils\fR

-.SH "BUGS"
-It seems that many Eastern fonts use features of the TTF format that are
-not supported by the ttf2pt1's built-in front-end parser. Because of
-this for now we recommend using the FreeType-based parser (option
-\&\*(R'\fB\-p ft\fR') with the \*(L"\f(CWplane\fR\*(R" language.
-.Sh "Troubleshooting and bug reports"
-Have problems with conversion of some font ? The converter dumps core ? Or your
-printer refuses to understand the converted fonts ? Or some characters are
-missing ? Or some characters look strange ?
-.PP
-Send the bug reports to the ttf2pt1 development mailing list at
-ttf2pt1-devel@lists.sourceforge.net.
-.PP
-Try to collect more information about the problem and include it into
-the bug report. (Of course, even better if you would provide a ready
-fix, but just a detailed bug report is also good). Provide detailed
-information about your problem, this will speed up the response greatly.
-Don't just write \*(L"this font looks strange after conversion\*(R" but describe
-what's exactly wrong with it: for example, what characters look wrong
-and what exactly is wrong about their look. Providing a link to the
-original font file would be also a good idea. Try to do a little
-troublehooting and report its result. This not only would help with
-the fix but may also give you a temporary work-around for the bug.
-.PP
-First, enable full warnings with option \*(L'\fB\-W99\fR\*(R', save them to
-a file and read carefully. Sometimes the prolem is with a not implemented
-feature which is reported in the warnings. Still, reporting about such
-problems may be a good idea: some features were missed to cut corners,
-in hope that no real font is using them. So a report about a font using
-such a feature may motivate someone to implement it. Of course, you
-may be the most motivated person: after all, you are the one wishing
-to convert that font. ;\-) Seriously, the philosophy \*(L"scrath your own itch\*(R"
-seems to be the strongest moving force behind the Open Source software.
-.PP
-The next step is playing with the options. This serves a dual purpose:
-on one hand, it helps to localize the bug, on the other hand you may be
-able to get a working version of the font for the meantime while the
-bug is being fixed. The typical options to try out are: first \*(L'\fB\-Ou\fR\*(R', if
-it does not help then \*(L'\fB\-Os\fR\*(R', then \*(L'\fB\-Oh\fR\*(R', then \*(L'\fB\-Oo\fR\*(R'.
-They are described in a bit more detail above. Try them one by one
-and in combinations. See if with them the resulting fonts look better.
-.PP
-On some fonts ttf2pt1 just crashes. Commonly that happens because the
-font being converted is highly defective (although sometimes the bug
-is in ttf2pt1 itself). In any case it should not crash, so the reports
-about such cases will help to handle these defects properly in future.
-.PP
-We try to respond to the bug reports in a timely fashion but alas, this
-may not always be possible, especially if the problem is complex.
-This is a volunteer project and its resources are limited. Because
-of this we would appreciate bug reports as detailed as possible,
-and we would appreciate the ready fixes and contributions even more.
