This section describes the options that BZRto accepts.
See section 3.3 Command-line options, for general option syntax.
The root of the main input fontname is called font-name below.
`-concat bzr-name1, bzr-name2, ...'
Concatenate the main input file with the given bzr-names; if a
character code exists in more than one of the BZR files, it's the first
occurrence that counts. The BZR files can have any design size; the
output is normalized to the size of the main input file.
`-ccc-file filename'
Read the CCC file filename (if filename has a suffix) or
`filename.ccc' (if it doesn't). Default is to use
font-name for filename, but if BZRto does not find
the file `font-name.ccc', it does not complain.
`-encoding filename'
Specify the encoding file for the input font, so character names in the
CCC files can be matched to character codes. If filename has no
suffix, use `filename.enc', otherwise just filename.
The default is to guess the encoding from the `codingscheme' string
in a TFM file corresponding to the main input file, if such exists.
Translate the input to a Metafont program; write to
`font-name.mf'. See section 11.1 Metafont and BZRto.
`-mf'
Synonym for `-metafont'.
`-oblique-angle angle-in-degrees'
Angle in degrees from the vertical by which to slant the shapes; default
is zero.
`-output-file filename'
Output to filename (if it has a suffix) or to
`filename.font-format' (if it doesn't), where
font-format is `mf', `gsf', etc. If you give more than
one of the output format options (i.e., `metafont', `pstype1' and
`pstype3'), filename cannot have a suffix. The default is
font-name with a trailing number removed, so that, for example, an
input filename of `cmr10' becomes `cmr'.
`-ps-font-info name1:value1,...'
Assign each value to the corresponding name when outputting
a PostScript font (either Type 1 or Type 3). Case is significant in
both the names and values. You can specify the following:
`FontName:string'
The full PostScript name of the font; e.g., Times-BoldItalic.
The default is unknown.
`FamilyName:string'
The name of the typeface family to which this font belongs; e.g.,
Times. The default is to use FontName up to the first
`-'.
`Weight:string'
The typographic weight of the font, e.g., Bold. If
FontName contains one of the strings `Black', `Book',
`Bold', `Demi', `ExtraBold', `Light', `Heavy',
`Regular', `Semibold', or `Ultra', that is the
weight. Otherwise, BZRto uses `Medium'.
`ItalicAngle:real'
The angle in degrees by which the font slopes to the right from the
vertical. Default is zero. Typical slanted or italic fonts have values
between 10--20.
`isFixedPitch:true or false'
Whether or not this font is monospaced. If a TFM file corresponding to
the main BZR file exists, and specifies a zero interword stretch and
shrink, and a nonzero interword space, the default is true.
Otherwise, it's false.
`UnderlinePosition:real'
Distance from the baseline for positioning underlines, in units of the
character coordinate system. Default is -100.
`UnderlineThickness:real'
Thickness of underlines. Default is 50.
`UniqueID:non-negative integer'
An integer in the range 0 to 16777215 (2^24 - 1) uniquely identifying
this font. The default is zero, meaning (for our purposes) not to
output any UniqueID. This avoids unlikely-but-possible conflicts
with existing fonts.
`version:string'
Identification for the particular version of this font. If a TFM file
corresponding to the main BZR file exists, and specifies a version
number, that is the default; otherwise, there is none.
All values except FontName and UniqueID go in
the FontInfo dictionary.
