NAME
       pltotf  -  convert  property list files to TeX font metric
       (tfm) format

SYNOPSIS
       pltotf [ -verbose ] pl_file_name tfm_file_name

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive.	The  com-
       plete  documentation  for this version of TeX can be found
       in the info file or manual Web2C: A TeX implementation.

       The pltotf program translates a (human-oriented) Web prop-
       erty  list  file	 to  a (program-oriented) TeX font metric
       file. Thus, after editing the property list  file,  a  TFM
       file can be generated for use with, for example, tex(1).

       Both  the  pl_file_name and the tfm_file_name must be com-
       plete; no adding of default extensions or  path	searching
       is done.

OPTIONS
       Without	the  -verbose  option,	pltotf operates silently.
       With it, a banner and progress report are printed on  std-
       out.

AUTHORS
       Donald  E.  Knuth  wrote	 the program. It was published as
       part of the TeXware technical report, available	from  the
       TeX  Users  Group.   Howard  Trickey,  Pavel  Curtis,  and
       Richard Furuta originally ported it to Unix.
