.TL Ppmdcfont User Manual .SH 1 ppmdcfont .LP Updated: September 2005 .br Table Of Contents .SH 2 NAME .LP ppmdcfont - Turn a Ppmdfont file into C source for a builtin font .SH 2 SYNOPSIS .LP \fBppmdcfont\fR .LP (There are no arguments or options) .SH 2 DESCRIPTION .LP .LP This program is part of Netpbm. .LP \fBppmdcfont\fR 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. .LP The output C source code has the font object's name hardcoded as \fBppmd_standardfont\fR, which you will definitely want to edit, because that is the name of the font built in to \fBlibnetpbm\fR. If you don't change it, it will conflict both cognitively and in program linking. There should obviously be an option on \fBppmdcfont\fR to choose this, but the development effort has not been justified so far. .LP See Libnetpbm PPM Drawing Function Manual for details on Ppmdfont files. .SH 2 SEE ALSO .LP \fBppmdraw\fR, \fBppmddumpfont\fR, \fBppmdcfont\fR, Libnetpbm PPM Drawing Function Manual .br \l'5i' .SH 2 Table Of Contents .LP .IP \(bu NAME .IP \(bu SYNOPSIS .IP \(bu DESCRIPTION .IP \(bu SEE ALSO .LP
