NAME

       trbdf - convert BDF-font from one encoding to other

SYNOPSIS

       trbdf -C | -l | -h

       trbdf [-s] [-f input-codeset ] [-t output-codeset ] [--foundry[=] new-foundry ] BDF-font

DESCRIPTION

       trbdf  is a program for translation of BDF fonts from one encoding to other.  One exciting
       feature of trbdf is that it tries to approximate the symbols that miss from  the  font  or
       from the encoding of the font with existing symbols when possible.

       If  the  option  -s  or  --gen-script  is  given  trbdf will generate an awk(1) script for
       translation of BDF-fonts for fixed combination of input-codeset and output-codeset This is
       useful for faster conversion of many files.  This script is used as filter.

       If  none  of  -C,  -s,  -l,  -h  and  their equivalents is given the BDF-font will be read
       assuming it is coded with codeset input-codeset On standard output it will be  recoded  so
       to  use  codeset output-codeset Both input-codeset and output-codeset are case insensitive
       and default to `cp1251'.

OPTIONS

       -C, --copyright
              Display copying conditions and warranty information.

       -s, --gen-script
              Generates conversion script for given input and output encodings instead to convert
              BDF-font.   This option is useful if you have to convert many fonts.  The generated
              script expects the input font from its standard input  and  outputs  the  converted
              font.

       -l, --list
              List all known codesets.

       -h, --help
              Display this help and exit.

       -f input-codeset, --from[=]input-codeset
              Codeset of the source font.

       -f output-codeset, --to[=]output-codeset
              Codeset of the generated font.

       --foundry[=]new-foundry
              Use this option if you want to change the foundry of the generated fonts.
