| -p
Number
| Sets the font glyph padding. Each glyph in the font has each
scanline padded into a multiple of bytes specified by the Number
variable, where Number is the value of 1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes.
|
| -u Number
| Sets the font scanline unit. When the font bit order is different
from the font byte order, the Number variable describes what units
of data (in bytes) are to be swapped. The Number variable
can be the value of 1, 2, or 4 bytes.
|
| -m
| Sets the font bit order to MSB (most significant bit) first. Bits
for each glyph are placed in this order. Thus, the left-most bit on the
screen is the highest valued bit in each unit.
|
| -l
| (lowercase L) Sets the font bit order to LSB (least significant bit)
first. The left-most bit on the screen is the lowest valued bit in each
unit.
|
| -M
| Sets the font byte order to MSB (most significant byte) first. All
multibyte data in the file, including metrics and bitmaps, are written most
significant byte first.
|
| -L
| Sets the font byte order to LSB (least significant byte) first.
All multibyte data in the file, including metrics and bitmaps, are written
least significant byte first.
|
| -t
| Converts fonts into terminal fonts whenever possible. A
terminal font has each glyph image padded to the same size. The Xserver
can usually render these font types more quickly.
|
| -i
| Inhibits the normal computation of ink metrics. When a font has
glyph images that do not fill the bitmap image because the ``on''
pixels do not extend to the edges of the metrics, the bdftopcf
command computes the actual ink metrics and places them in the
.pcf file.
Note: The -t option inhibits the behavior of this
flag.
|
| -o PcfFile
| Specifies the name of an output file. By default, the
bdftopcf command writes the pcf file to standard
output.
