NAME

       showttf - decompose a font file into its various tables and display it

SYNOPSIS

       showttf [-verbose] fontfile

DESCRIPTION

       showttf is a program which will decompose a truetype (or opentype) font
       file into its various tables and display the contents of  those  tables
       as  best  it  can.   It  will also point out the errors it finds in the
       file. This is similar to MicroSoft’s ttfdump (except the showttf  shows
       some  of  Apple’s  tables  which  ttfdump  does  not),  and  to Apple’s
       ftxdumperfuser (except the showttf shows  some  OpenType  tables  which
       Apple’s  ignores).  And,  of course, showttf is open source and runs on
       most any system.

OPTIONS
