The \.{TFtoPL} utility program converts \TeX\ font metric (``\.{TFM}'') files into equivalent property-list (``\.{PL}'') files. It also makes a thorough check of the given \.{TFM} file, using essentially the same algorithm as \TeX. Thus if \TeX\ complains that a \.{TFM} file is ``bad,'' this program will pinpoint the source or sources of badness. A \.{PL} file output by this program can be edited with a normal text editor, and the result can be converted back to \.{TFM} format using the companion program \.{PLtoTF}. The first \.{TFtoPL} program was designed by Leo Guibas in the summer of 1978. Contributions by Frank Liang, Doug Wyatt, and Lyle Ramshaw also had a significant effect on the evolution of the present code. The |banner| string defined here should be changed whenever \.{TFtoPL} gets modified. @d banner=='This is TFtoPL, Version 2.4' {printed when the program starts} @ This program is written entirely in standard \PASCAL, except that it occasionally has lower case letters in strings that are output. Such letters can be converted to upper case if necessary. The input is read from |tfm←file|, and the output is written on |pl←file|; error messages and other remarks are written on the |output| file, which the user may choose to assign to the terminal if the system permits it. @↑system dependencies@> The term |print| is used instead of |write| when this program writes on the |output| file, so that all such output can be easily deflected. @d print(#)==write(#) @d print←ln(#)==write←ln(#) @p program TFtoPL(@!tfm←file,@!pl←file,@!output); label @<Labels in the outer block@>@/ const @<Constants in the outer block@>@/ type @<Types in the outer block@>@/ var @<Globals in the outer block@>@/ procedure initialize; {this procedure gets things started properly} begin print←ln(banner);@/ @<Set initial values@>@/ end; @ If the program has to stop prematurely, it goes to the `|final←end|'. @d final←end=9999 {label for the end of it all} @<Labels...@>=final←end; @ The following parameter can be changed at compile time to extend or reduce \.{TFtoPL}'s capacity. @<Constants...@>= @!tfm←size=20000; {maximum length of |tfm| data, in bytes} @ Here are some macros for common programming idioms. @d incr(#) == #:=#+1 {increase a variable by unity} @d decr(#) == #:=#-1 {decrease a variable by unity} @d do←nothing == {empty statement} @* Font metric data. The idea behind \.{TFM} files is that typesetting routines like \TeX\ need a compact way to store the relevant information about several dozen fonts, and computer centers need a compact way to store the relevant information about several hundred fonts. \.{TFM} files are compact, and most of the information they contain is highly relevant, so they provide a solution to the problem. The information in a \.{TFM} file appears in a sequence of 8-bit bytes. Since the number of bytes is always a multiple of 4, we could also regard the file as a sequence of 32-bit words; but \TeX\ uses the byte interpretation, and so does \.{TFtoPL}. Note that the bytes are considered to be unsigned numbers. @<Glob...@>= @!tfm←file:packed file of 0..255; @ On some systems you may have to do something special to read a packed file of bytes. For example, the following code didn't work when it was first tried at Stanford, because packed files have to be opened with a special switch setting on the \PASCAL\ that was used. @↑system dependencies@> @<Set init...@>= reset(tfm←file); @ The first 24 bytes (6 words) of a \.{TFM} file contain twelve 16-bit integers that give the lengths of the various subsequent portions of the file. These twelve integers are, in order: $$\vbox{\halign{\hfil#&$\null=\null$#\hfil\cr |@!lf|&length of the entire file, in words;\cr |@!lh|&length of the header data, in words;\cr |@!bc|&smallest character code in the font;\cr |@!ec|&largest character code in the font;\cr |@!nw|&number of words in the width table;\cr |@!nh|&number of words in the height table;\cr |@!nd|&number of words in the depth table;\cr |@!ni|&number of words in the italic correction table;\cr |@!nl|&number of words in the lig/kern table;\cr |@!nk|&number of words in the kern table;\cr |@!ne|&number of words in the extensible character table;\cr |@!np|&number of font parameter words.\cr}}$$ They are all nonnegative and less than $2↑{15}$. We must have |bc-1<=ec<=255|, |ne<=256|, and $$\hbox{|lf=6+lh+(ec-bc+1)+nw+nh+nd+ni+nl+nk+ne+np|.}$$ Note that a font may contain as many as 256 characters (if |bc=0| and |ec=255|), and as few as 0 characters (if |bc=ec+1|). Incidentally, when two or more 8-bit bytes are combined to form an integer of 16 or more bits, the most significant bytes appear first in the file. This is called BigEndian order. @<Glob...@>= @!lf,@!lh,@!bc,@!ec,@!nw,@!nh,@!nd,@!ni,@!nl,@!nk,@!ne,@!np:0..@'77777; {subfile sizes} @ The rest of the \.{TFM} file may be regarded as a sequence of ten data arrays having the informal specification $$\def\arr$[#1]#2${\&{array} $[#1]$ \&{of} #2} \vbox{\halign{\hfil\\{#}&$\,:\,$\arr#\hfil\cr header&|[0..lh-1]stuff|\cr char\←info&|[bc..ec]char←info←word|\cr width&|[0..nw-1]fix←word|\cr height&|[0..nh-1]fix←word|\cr depth&|[0..nd-1]fix←word|\cr italic&|[0..ni-1]fix←word|\cr lig\←kern&|[0..nl-1]lig←kern←command|\cr kern&|[0..nk-1]fix←word|\cr exten&|[0..ne-1]extensible←recipe|\cr param&|[1..np]fix←word|\cr}}$$ The most important data type used here is a |@!fix←word|, which is a 32-bit representation of a binary fraction. A |fix←word| is a signed quantity, with the two's complement of the entire word used to represent negation. Of the 32 bits in a |fix←word|, exactly 12 are to the left of the binary point; thus, the largest |fix←word| value is $2048-2↑{-20}$, and the smallest is $-2048$. We will see below, however, that all but one of the |fix←word| values will lie between $-16$ and $+16$. @ The first data array is a block of header information, which contains general facts about the font. The header must contain at least two words, and for \.{TFM} files to be used with Xerox printing software it must contain at least 18 words, allocated as described below. When different kinds of devices need to be interfaced, it may be necessary to add further words to the header block. \yskip\hang|header[0]| is a 32-bit check sum that \TeX\ will copy into the \.{DVI} output file whenever it uses the font. Later on when the \.{DVI} file is printed, possibly on another computer, the actual font that gets used is supposed to have a check sum that agrees with the one in the \.{TFM} file used by \TeX. In this way, users will be warned about potential incompatibilities. (However, if the check sum is zero in either the font file or the \.{TFM} file, no check is made.) The actual relation between this check sum and the rest of the \.{TFM} file is not important; the check sum is simply an identification number with the property that incompatible fonts almost always have distinct check sums. @↑check sum@> \yskip\hang|header[1]| is a |fix←word| containing the design size of the font, in units of \TeX\ points (7227 \TeX\ points = 254 cm). This number must be at least 1.0; it is fairly arbitrary, but usually the design size is 10.0 for a ``10 point'' font, i.e., a font that was designed to look best at a 10-point size, whatever that really means. When a \TeX\ user asks for a font `\.{at} $\delta$ \.{pt}', the effect is to override the design size and replace it by $\delta$, and to multiply the $x$ and~$y$ coordinates of the points in the font image by a factor of $\delta$ divided by the design size. {\sl All other dimensions in the\/\ \.{TFM} file are |fix←word|\kern-1pt\ numbers in design-size units.} Thus, for example, the value of |param[6]|, one \.{em} or \.{\\quad}, is often the |fix←word| value $2↑{20}=1.0$, since many fonts have a design size equal to one em. The other dimensions must be less than 16 design-size units in absolute value; thus, |header[1]| and |param[1]| are the only |fix←word| entries in the whole \.{TFM} file whose first byte might be something besides 0 or 255. @↑design size@> \yskip\hang|header[2..11]|, if present, contains 40 bytes that identify the character coding scheme. The first byte, which must be between 0 and 39, is the number of subsequent ASCII bytes actually relevant in this string, which is intended to specify what character-code-to-symbol convention is present in the font. Examples are \.{ASCII} for standard ASCII, \.{TEX TEXT} for fonts like \.{cmr} and \.{cmti}, \.{TEX MATHEX} for \.{cmex}, \.{XEROX TEXT} for Xerox fonts, \.{GRAPHIC} for special-purpose non-alphabetic fonts, \.{UNSPECIFIED} for the default case when there is no information. Parentheses should not appear in this name. (Such a string is said to be in {\mc BCPL} format.) Oriental fonts, for which many different individual symbols might share the same metric information, should be identifiable via this part of the \.{TFM} header. @↑coding scheme@> @↑oriental characters@>@↑Chinese characters@>@↑Japanese characters@> \yskip\hang|header[12..16]|, if present, contains 20 bytes that name the font family (e.g., \.{CMR} or \.{HELVETICA}), in {\mc BCPL} format. @↑family name@> \yskip\hang|header[17]|, if present, contains a first byte called the |seven←bit←safe←flag|, then two bytes that are ignored, and a fourth byte called the |face|. If the value of the fourth byte is less than 18, it has the following interpretation as a ``weight, slope, and expansion'': Add 0 or 2 or 4 (for medium or bold or light) to 0 or 1 (for roman or italic) to 0 or 6 or 12 (for regular or condensed or extended). For example, 13 is 0+1+12, so it represents medium italic extended. A three-letter code (e.g., \.{MIE}) can be used for such |face| data. \yskip\hang|header[18..@twhatever@>]| might also be present; the individual words are simply called |header[18]|, |header[19]|, etc., at the moment. @ Next comes the |char←info| array, which contains one |char←info←word| per character. Each |char←info←word| contains six fields packed into four bytes as follows. \yskip\hang first byte: |width←index| (8 bits)\par \hang second byte: |height←index| (4 bits) times 16, plus |depth←index| (4~bits)\par \hang third byte: |italic←index| (6 bits) times 4, plus |tag| (2~bits)\par \hang fourth byte: |remainder| (8 bits)\par \yskip\noindent The actual width of a character is |width[width←index]|, in design-size units; this is a device for compressing information, since many characters have the same width. Since it is quite common for many characters to have the same height, depth, or italic correction, the \.{TFM} format imposes a limit of 16 different heights, 16 different depths, and 64 different italic corrections. Incidentally, the relation |width[0]=height[0]=depth[0]=italic[0]=0| should always hold, so that an index of zero implies a value of zero. The |width←index| should never be zero unless the character does not exist in the font, since a character is valid if and only if it lies between |bc| and |ec| and has a nonzero |width←index|. @ The |tag| field in a |char←info←word| has four values that explain how to interpret the |remainder| field. \yskip\hang|tag=0| (|no←tag|) means that |remainder| is unused.\par \hang|tag=1| (|lig←tag|) means that this character has a ligature/kerning program starting at |lig←kern[remainder]|.\par \hang|tag=2| (|list←tag|) means that this character is part of a chain of characters of ascending sizes, and not the largest in the chain. The |remainder| field gives the character code of the next larger character.\par \hang|tag=3| (|ext←tag|) means that this character code represents an extensible character, i.e., a character that is built up of smaller pieces so that it can be made arbitrarily large. The pieces are specified in |exten[remainder]|.\par @d no←tag=0 {vanilla character} @d lig←tag=1 {character has a ligature/kerning program} @d list←tag=2 {character has a successor in a charlist} @d ext←tag=3 {character is extensible} @ The |lig←kern| array contains instructions in a simple programming language that explains what to do for special letter pairs. Each word is a |lig←kern←command| of four bytes. \yskip\hang first byte: |stop←bit|, indicates that this is the final program step if the byte is 128 or more.\par \hang second byte: |next←char|, ``if |next←char| follows the current character, then perform the operation and stop, otherwise continue.''\par \hang third byte: |op←bit|, indicates a ligature step if less than~128, a kern step otherwise.\par \hang fourth byte: |remainder|.\par \yskip\noindent In a ligature step the current character and |next←char| are replaced by the single character whose code is |remainder|. In a kern step, an additional space equal to |kern[remainder]| is inserted between the current character and |next←char|. (The value of |kern[remainder]| is often negative, so that the characters are brought closer together by kerning; but it might be positive.) @d stop←flag=128 {value indicating `\.{STOP}' in a lig/kern program} @d kern←flag=128 {op code for a kern step} @ Extensible characters are specified by an |extensible←recipe|, which consists of four bytes called |top|, |mid|, |bot|, and |rep| (in this order). These bytes are the character codes of individual pieces used to build up a large symbol. If |top|, |mid|, or |bot| are zero, they are not present in the built-up result. For example, an extensible vertical line is like an extensible bracket, except that the top and bottom pieces are missing. @ The final portion of a \.{TFM} file is the |param| array, which is another sequence of |fix←word| values. \yskip\hang|param[1]=@!slant| is the amount of italic slant, which is used to help position accents. For example, |slant=.25| means that when you go up one unit, you also go .25 units to the right. The |slant| is a pure number; it's the only |fix←word| other than the design size itself that is not scaled by the design size. \hang|param[2]=space| is the normal spacing between words in text. Note that character |" "| in the font need not have anything to do with blank spaces. \hang|param[3]=space←stretch| is the amount of glue stretching between words. \hang|param[4]=space←shrink| is the amount of glue shrinking between words. \hang|param[5]=x←height| is the height of letters for which accents don't have to be raised or lowered. \hang|param[6]=quad| is the size of one em in the font. \hang|param[7]=extra←space| is the amount added to |param[2]| at the ends of sentences. When the character coding scheme is \.{TEX MATHSY}, the font is supposed to have 15 additional parameters called |num1|, |num2|, |num3|, |denom1|, |denom2|, |sup1|, |sup2|, |sup3|, |sub1|, |sub2|, |supdrop|, |subdrop|, |delim1|, |delim2|, and |axis←height|, respectively. When the character coding scheme is \.{TEX MATHEX}, the font is supposed to have six additional parameters called |default←rule←thickness| and |big←op←spacing1| through |big←op←spacing5|. @ So that is what \.{TFM} files hold. The next question is, ``What about \.{PL} files?'' A complete answer to that question appears in the documentation of the companion program, \.{PLtoTF}, so it will not be repeated here. Suffice it to say that a \.{PL} file is an ordinary \PASCAL\ text file, and that the output of \.{TFtoPL} uses only a subset of the possible constructions that might appear in a \.{PL} file. Furthermore, hardly anybody really wants to look at the formal definition of \.{PL} format, because it is almost self-explanatory when you see an example or two. @<Glob...@>= @!pl←file:text; @ @<Set init...@>= rewrite(pl←file); @* Unpacked representation.

And when it finds something wrong, it justs calls the file ``bad,'' without identifying the nature of the problem, since \.{TFM} files are supposed to be good almost all of the time. Of course, a bad file shows up every now and again, and that's where \.{TFtoPL} comes in. This program wants to catch at least as many errors as \TeX\ does, and to give informative error messages besides. All of the errors are corrected, so that the \.{PL} output will be correct (unless, of course, the \.{TFM} file was so loused up that no attempt is being made to fathom it). @ Just before each character is processed, its code is printed in octal notation.
