NAME

       ftgrid - simple glyph grid viewer

SYNOPSIS

       ftgrid [options] pt font ...

DESCRIPTION

       ftgrid displays the glyphs of a font as outlines right before the conversion from outlines to pixels take
       place.  It also displays the resulting bitmap.  It  is  possible  to  interactively  change  hinting  and
       rendering options, thus visualizing the applied distortions to the outlines.

       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, ftgrid also tries to attach the corresponding
              metrics file (with extension `.afm' or `.pfm').

       This program is part of the FreeType demos package.
