NAME

       ppmdcfont - Turn a Ppmdfont file into C source for a builtin font

SYNOPSIS

       ppmdcfont

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       (There are no arguments or options)

       ppmdcfont  creates  a C source file that you can compile into a built-in font for use with
       the Netpbm PPM drawing facilities.  It reads a Ppmdfont file on Standard Input and  writes
       the C source code to Standard Output.

       The  output C source code has the font object's name hardcoded as ppmd_standardfont, which
       you will definitely want to edit, because that is  the  name  of  the  font  built  in  to
       libnetpbm.   If  you  don't  change  it,  it will conflict both cognitively and in program
       linking.  There should obviously be an  option  on  ppmdcfont  to  choose  this,  but  the
       development effort has not been justified so far.

       See Libnetpbm PPM Drawing Function Manual" (1) for details on Ppmdfont files.
