+.PP 
+\fBovp2ovf\fP translates a human-readable virtual property list (OVP)
+file, \fIOVPFILE\fP, into a virtual font (OVF) file, \fIOVFFILE\fP
+and its companion font metric (OFM) file, \fIOFMFILE\fP\&.
+.PP 
+The program also works with TeX VP files, producing VF and TFM files\&.
+(\fBovp2ovf\fP is based on the WEB source code for \fBvptovf\fP(1)\&.)

+.SH "AUTHOR" 
+.PP 
+According to the WEB documentation:
+.PP 
+.RS 
+\fBVPtoVF\fP is an extended version of the program \fBPLtoTF\fP,
+which is part of the standard TeXware library\&.  \fBOVP2OVF\fP is an
+extended version of \fBVPtoVF\fP that allows much larger fonts\&.  The
+idea of a virtual font was inspired by the work of David R\&. Fuchs who
+designed a similar set of conventions in 1984 while developing a
+device driver for ArborText, Inc\&.  He wrote a somewhat similar program
+called \fBPLFONT\fP\&.
