T1MAC(1)                    General Commands Manual                   T1MAC(1)

NAME
       t1mac  -  translate  a PFA or PFB PostScript Type 1 font into Macintosh
       format

SYNOPSIS
       t1mac [--macbinary | --applesingle | --appledouble | --binhex |  --raw]
       [--filename name] [input [output]]

DESCRIPTION
       t1mac  reads a PFA (hexadecimal) or PFB (binary) PostScript Type 1 font
       file and generates an equivalent Macintosh Type 1 font file. The output
       file  can  be in MacBinary II, AppleSingle, AppleDouble, or BinHex for-
       mat, or it can be a raw resource fork. The default is MacBinary II; use
       an option to choose a different format. If the output file is not spec-
       ified output goes to the standard output.

       WARNING: The output of t1mac is not sufficient to use the  font,  since
       Macintoshes can't read raw Type 1 fonts. You will need to create a font
       suitcase containing bitmap fonts if you do not have such a suitcase for
       the font already.  t1mac cannot help you do this.

OPTIONS
       --raw, -r
            Indicates that output should be a raw resource fork.

       --macbinary
            Indicates  that output should be in MacBinary I or II format. This
            is the default.

       --applesingle
            Indicates that output should be in AppleSingle format.

       --appledouble
            Indicates that output should be in AppleDouble format.

       --binhex
            Indicates that output should be in BinHex 4.0 format.

       --filename=name, -n name
            Sets the Macintosh filename of the output font to  name.  The  de-
            fault  is to construct the filename from the font's name using es-
            tablished Macintosh conventions. This option is  not  useful  when
            output is a raw resource fork.
