NAME

       fstobdf - generate BDF font from X font server

SYNOPSIS

       fstobdf [ -server servername ] -fn fontname

       fstobdf -version

DESCRIPTION

       The  fstobdf program reads a font from a font server and prints a BDF file on the standard
       output that may be used to  recreate  the  font.   This  is  useful  in  testing  servers,
       debugging font metrics, and reproducing lost BDF files.

OPTIONS

       -server servername
               This  option  specifies the server from which the font should be read.  servername
               must be specified in one of the formats defined in the Font Server  Names  section
               of  X(7).    If  not  specified,  the  server  name  in the FONTSERVER environment
               variable is used.

       -fn fontname
               This option specifies the font for which a BDF file should be generated.

       -version
               This option prints the program version and then exits  without  generating  a  BDF
               file.

ENVIRONMENT

       FONTSERVER
               The  default  server  to  use.   The  server  name must be specified in one of the
               formats defined in the Font Server Names section of X(7).
