NAME

       mknfonts - create nfont packages

SYNOPSIS

       mknfonts [options] files...

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly the mknfonts command.  This manual page was written for the Debian
       distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       mknfonts doesn't completely automate the process of creating nfont-packages, but it can do  most  of  the
       bulk work for you. Just put a bunch of fonts (.ttf, .pfa, .pfb, .afm, ...; most formats that freetype can
       handle and provide postscript names for) in an empty directory and run:

       mknfonts *

       You'll get a bunch of packages ready to be moved to .../Library/Fonts/. For best results, you'll want to
       review the packages. Most traits/weights (besides the really standard ones) won't be handled
       automatically, so you'll have to add or tweak them manually if you want GNUstep to know about them.

OPTIONS

       These  programs  follow  the  usual  GNU  command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes
       (`-').

SEE ALSO

       GNUstep(7).
