pdffonts(1)                 General Commands Manual                pdffonts(1)



NAME
       pdffonts - Portable Document Format (PDF) font analyzer (version 4.03)

SYNOPSIS
       pdffonts [options] [PDF-file]

DESCRIPTION
       Pdffonts  lists the fonts used in a Portable Document Format (PDF) file
       along with various information for each font.

       The following information is listed for each font:

       name   the font name, exactly as given in  the  PDF  file  (potentially
              including a subset prefix)

       type   the font type -- see below for details

       emb    "yes" if the font is embedded in the PDF file

       sub    "yes" if the font is a subset

       uni    "yes"  if  there  is an explicit "ToUnicode" map in the PDF file
              (the absence of a ToUnicode map doesn't  necessarily  mean  that
              the text can't be converted to Unicode)

       prob   "X"  if  this  font  is likely to be problematic when converting
              text to Unicode

       object ID
              the font dictionary object ID (number and generation)

       location
              the font location (see the -loc and -locPS options).

       PDF files can contain the following types of fonts:

              Type 1
              Type 1C -- aka Compact Font Format (CFF)
              Type 1C (OT) -- OpenType with 8-bit CFF data
              Type 3
              TrueType
              TrueType (OT) -- OpenType with 8-bit TrueType data
              CID Type 0 -- 16-bit font with no specified type
              CID Type 0C -- 16-bit PostScript CFF font
              CID Type 0C (OT) -- OpenType with CID CFF data
              CID TrueType -- 16-bit TrueType font
              CID TrueType (OT) -- OpenType with CID TrueType data

CONFIGURATION FILE
       Pdffonts reads a configuration file at startup.  It first tries to find
       the  user's  private config file, ~/.xpdfrc.  If that doesn't exist, it
       looks for a system-wide config  file,  typically  /usr/local/etc/xpdfrc
       (but  this  location  can  be changed when pdffonts is built).  See the
       xpdfrc(5) man page for details.

OPTIONS
       Many of the following options can be set with configuration  file  com-
       mands.  These are listed in square brackets with the description of the
       corresponding command line option.

       -f number
              Specifies the first page to analyze.

       -loc   Shows additional information on the location of  the  font  that
              will  be  used  when  the  PDF  file  is  rasterized (with xpdf,
              pdftoppm, etc.).

       -locPS Shows additional information on the location of  the  font  that
              will  be used when the PDF file is converted to PostScript (with
              pdftops).

       -l number
              Specifies the last page to analyze.

       -opw password
              Specify the owner password for the  PDF  file.   Providing  this
              will bypass all security restrictions.

       -upw password
              Specify the user password for the PDF file.

       -cfg config-file
              Read config-file in place of ~/.xpdfrc or the system-wide config
              file.

       -v     Print copyright and version information.

       -h     Print usage information.  (-help and --help are equivalent.)

EXIT CODES
       The Xpdf tools use the following exit codes:

       0      No error.

       1      Error opening a PDF file.

       2      Error opening an output file.

       3      Error related to PDF permissions.

       99     Other error.
