NAME

       composeglyphs - generate an encoding vector or new font for postscript

SYNOPSIS

       composeglyphs -e encoding.afm -E encoding.ps

       composeglyphs  -i input.afm -o output.ps -c composite.afm -n newname -e
       base_encoding.afm -t target_encoding.afm -a output.afm

DESCRIPTION

       composeglyphs is a script to generate either an encoding  vector  or  a
       new font for postscript.  It requires a pre-existing AFM and allows for
       the use of composite characters that that AFM does not already provide.

OPTIONS

       -e encoding.afm
              The base encoding AFM to use.

       -E encoding.ps
              The encoding vector to output.

       -i input.afm
              The AFM of the original font.

       -o output.ps
              The font program to generate.

       -c composite.afm
              The    AFM    containing   supplementary   composite   character
              information.

       -n newname
              The name of the new font.

       -t target_encoding.afm
              The target encoding.

       -a output.afm
              The name of the AFM file to generate.

NOTES

       composeglyphs is  a  part  of  Ogonkify,  which  comes  with  the  a2ps
       distribution.

       If  you  create  new AFMs or modify existing ones, the author asks that
       you kindly send him  a  copy  so  that  he  may  include  them  in  the
       distribution.
