NAME
       ofm2opl	-  convert  Omega  and	TeX font-metric files to property-list
       files

SYNOPSIS
       ofm2opl [options] ofmname[.ofm] [oplfile[.opl]]

DESCRIPTION
       ofm2opl translates a binary Omega Font Metrics file,  ofmname,  into  a
       human-readable property-list form.  The program writes to standard out‐
       put (by default) or to a file specified as oplfile.

       The program also works with TeX TFM files, producing TeX PL files.

OPTIONS
       (Same as ovf2ovp).

       -charcode-format=type
	      output character codes according to type, either `hex',  `octal'
	      or  `ascii'.   Default  is  `hex'; `ascii' says to use ASCII for
	      letters and digits, hex for all else.

       -char-format=stype
	      output character codes  according	 to  stype,  either  `num'  or
	      `ascii'.	Default	 is  `num';  `ascii'  as  in -charcode-format.
	      (These two redundant options both exist only for historical com‐
	      patibility.)

       -num-format=ntype
	      output  numbers  according  to  ntype,  either `hex' or `octal';
	      default is hex.

       -text-format=ttype
	      output coding scheme  and	 family	 according  to	ttype,	either
	      `mixed' or `upper' case; default is mixed.

       -help  display a brief summary of syntax and options

       -verbose
	      display progress reports

       -version
	      output version information and exit

AUTHOR
       According to the WEB documentation:

	      The first TFtoPL program was designed by Leo Guibas in the  sum‐
	      mer of 1978.  Contributions by Frank Liang, Doug Wyatt, and Lyle
	      Ramshaw also had a significant effect on the  evolution  of  the
	      present code.

	      Extensions for an enhanced ligature mechanism were added by D.E.
	      Knuth in 1989.

	      Extensions to handle extended font metric files  (``OFM'')  were
	      added  by John Plaice in December 1995 and January 1996, result‐
	      ing in the new program OFM2OPL.

       ofm2opl is based on the WEB source code for tftopl(1),  although	 nowa‐
       days it is a link to omfonts, implemented entirely in C.

       The  primary  authors  of Omega are John Plaice and Yannis Haralambous.
       Omega (and Aleph) are now maintained as part of TeX Live.
