     F2P(1)	       UNIX System V (12 March 1990)		F2P(1)

     NAME
	  f2p - translates fig output into pic language

     SYNOPSIS
	  f2p [ -f font_file ] [ input_file [ output_file ] ]

     DESCRIPTION
	  F2p translates fig objects in the named input_file into pic
	  language and puts them in output_file. If only one file name
	  is present, it is assumed to be the input file (fig output
	  file).  The output file (pic_file), if not present, will be
	  the stdout.  If the input_file is not present, input will be
	  assumed to come from the stdin.

	  The fonts used for text objects are converted from their
	  LaserWriter names (as selected when using fig) to site-
	  specific troff 2-letter font names using information in the
	  file /usr/lib/X11/troff/troff_ft_codes, or a file named
	  using the optional -f argument.  If a file named with this
	  option is not found in the working directory it will be
	  sought in /usr/lib/X11/troff.

     BUGS
	  Filling of closed objects is ignored.	 It would be possible
	  to generate pic instructions to produce some form of filling
	  in f2p, but the filling feature really needs to be added to
	  pic.

     SEE ALSO
	  xfig(1), pic(1), f2ps(1).
