NAME
       ovf2ovp	-  convert  a virtual font file and its associated font metric
       file into property-list format

SYNOPSIS
       ovf2ovp [ OPTION... ] OVFNAME[.ovf] [ [ OFMNAME[.ofm] ] [ OVPFILE[.ovp]
       ] ]

DESCRIPTION
       ovf2ovp	translates a virtual font (OVF) file, OVFNAME, and its companā€
       ion font metric (OFM) file, OFMNAME, into  a  human-readable  property-
       list  format.  The program writes to standard output (by default) or to
       a file specified as OVPNAME.

       The program also works with TeX VF and  TFM  files,  producing  TeX  VP
       files.  (ovf2ovp is based on the WEB source code for vftovp(1).)

OPTIONS
       -charcode-format=TYPE
	      output  character	 codes	according to TYPE, which can be either
	      `hex' or `ascii'.	 Default is `hex'.  ascii specifes  all	 ASCII
	      letters and digits; hex gets you everything else.

       -help  display a brief summary of syntax and options

       -verbose

       -version
	      output version information and exit

AUTHOR
       According to the WEB documentation:

	      VFtoVP  is  an  extended version of the program TFtoPL, which is
	      part of the standard tex()ware library.  The idea of  a  virtual
	      font  was	 inspired by the work of David R. Fuchs who designed a
	      similar set of conventions in 1984  while	 developing  a	device
	      driver  for ArborText, Inc.  He wrote a somewhat similar program
	      called AMFtoXPL.
