NAME

       xtotroff - convert X font metrics into GNU troff font metrics

SYNOPSIS

       xtotroff [ -rresolution ] [ -spoint-size ] [ -v ] FontMap

       It is possible to have whitespace between a command line option and its
       parameter.

DESCRIPTION

       xtotroff takes a FontMap, which maps groff fonts to X11 fonts,  creates
       GNU  troff  metric  files  for  all fonts listed.  Each line in FontMap
       consists of GNU troff font name and an  X  font  name  (XLFD)  pattern,
       separated by whitespace.  Example:

         TB   -adobe-times-bold-r-normal--*-*-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1

       The  wildcards  in the patterns are filled with the arguments to the -r
       and -s switches.  If a font name is still ambiguous, xtotroff aborts.

OPTIONS

       -rresolution
              Set the resolution for all font patterns in FontMap.  The  value
              is used for both the horizontal and vertical resolution.  If not
              specified, a resolution of 75dpi is assumed.

       -spoint-size
              Set the point size for all font patterns  in  FontMap.   If  not
              specified, a size of 10pt is assumed.

       -v     Print the version number.

BUGS

       The   only   supported  font  encodings  are  ‘iso8859-1’  and  ‘adobe-
       fontspecific’.
