NAME

bdf2sfd — BDF to SFD converter

SYNOPSIS

bdf2sfd [-hv] [-f name] [-p name] font.bdf

DESCRIPTION

bdf2sfd is a BDF to SFD converter, allowing to vectorize bitmap fonts. It works by converting each pixel of a glyph to a polygon, which produces large and unoptimized SFD files which should be post-processed using FontForge.

If file is a single dash (‘-’), bdf2sfd reads from the standard input.

The options are as follows:

-f name

Specify font name.

-p name

Specify PostScript font name.

-h

Display usage.

-v

Display version.
