NAME

       ftstring - string viewer

SYNOPSIS

       ftstring [options] [pt] font ...

DESCRIPTION

       ftstring  displays a text string with the given font, allowing to change various rendering
       and display options interactively.

       pt     The point size for the given resolution.  If resolution  is  72dpi,  this  directly
              gives the ppem value (pixels per EM).

       font   The  font file(s) to display.  For Type 1 font files, ftstring also tries to attach
              the corresponding metrics file (with extension `.afm' or `.pfm').

       Besides the string, ftstring also displays two stress test patterns sensitive to rendering
       flaws,  such  as incorrect gamma settings.  Alternative text-carpeting and waterfall views
       are also available.  This program is part of the FreeType demos package.

OPTIONS

       -d WxH[xD]
              Set the window width to W px, the height to H px, and optionally the depth to D bpp
              (default: 640x480x24).

       -r r   Use resolution r dpi (default: 72dpi).

       -e enc Specify  encoding  tag (default: no encoding).  Common values: unic (Unicode), symb
              (symbol), ADOB (Adobe standard), ADBC (Adobe custom), or a numeric charmap index.

       -m text
              Use text for rendering.

       -k keys
              Emulate sequence of keystrokes upon start-up.  If the keystrokes contain  'q',  the
              program  operates  in  batch  mode.  Function keys Fx are mapped to character codes
              0xFx; as an example, -k $'\xF3q' is function key 'F3' followed by character 'q'.
