IPFontMaster
outputFileName ← {<global switches>} fontname1{<local switches>} fontname2 . . .
Converts the named fonts into interpress form and puts them into the named output file. The program does not supply an extension for the outputFileName, so if you want one, type it. The switches are really specified with the curly braces, just to be different.
The following switches are recognized:
O => operators (otherwise just metric info is output)
C => correction (CORRECTMASK/CORRECTSPACE info)
B => bbox (character bounding boxes)
K => kerns
L => ligatures
E => all of the above
I => integerCoding (use a tighter encoding for the spline info)
V => viewer (allows editing of the direction of the trajectories in each outline)
The V switch is useful for help in converting from press's parity-fill semantics to the Interpress wrap-fill semantics. The viewer has the following menu items:
r0 r1 r2 r3 r4 r5 - reverse the direction of the corresponding trajectory.
Size - Grow (left button) or shrink (right button) the size of the displayed characters
<<<-->>> - horizontal scrolling (16-pixel increments)
Next - advance to next character:
left button - next char in sequence
middle button - next char with at lkeast two trajectories
left button - keep going through the whole font (delays 1/2 sec between characters)
Deleting the viewer aborts the program.
