-.SH NAME
-tftopl \- convert TeX font metric (tfm) files to property lists
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B tftopl
-.RI [ OPTIONS ]
-.IR tfm_name [ \fB.tfm\fP ]
-.RI [ pl_name [ \fB.pl\fP ]]
-.\"=====================================================================
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete
-documentation for this version of \*(TX can be found in the info file
-or manual
-.IR "Web2C: A TeX implementation" .
-.PP
-The
-.B tftopl
-program translates a (program-oriented) font metric file to a
-(human-oriented) property list file. Thus, you can edit the contents of
-the TFM files, if the font designer has not done his or her job
-properly, or if you're encountering strange difficulties, or if you're
-just curious. It also serves as a TFM-file validating program, i.e., if
-no error messages are given, the input file is correct.
-.PP
-The
-.I pl_name
-is extended with
-.B .pl
-if it lacks a suffix.
-If
-.I pl_name
-is not given, standard output is used. Likewise,
-.I tfm_name
-is extended with
-.B .tfm
-if it lacks a suffix. Also, path searching is done for the TFM file
-using the environment variable TEXFONTS. If that is not set,
-.B tftopl
-uses the system default.
-.PP
-See
-.BR tex (1)
-for the details of the searching.
-.\"=====================================================================
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP
-.BI \-charcode-format= format
-The argument
-.I format
-specifies how character codes are output in the PL file. By
-default, only letters and digits are output using the
-.B C
-integer code (i.e., in ASCII); the others are output in octal. (Unless
-the font's coding scheme starts with
-.B "TeX math sy"
-or
-.BR "TeX math ex" ,
-in which case all character codes are output in octal.) If
-.I format
-is
-.BR ascii ,
-all character codes that correspond to graphic characters, besides the
-left and right parentheses, are output in ASCII. Finally, if
-.I format
-is
-.BR octal ,
-all character codes are output in octal.
-.PP
-.TP
-.B \-verbose
-Without this option,
-.B tftopl
-operates silently. With it, a banner and progress report are printed on
-.IR stdout .
