Name

t1disasm - disassemble type-1 font

Synopsis

t1disasm [input [output ]]

Description

t1disasm disassembles Adobe Type 1 font programs in either PFA (hexadecimal) or PFB (binary) formats into human-readable form. If the file output is not specified output goes to the standard output. If the file input is not specified input comes from the standard input. t1disasm performs eexec and charstring decryption as specified in the ``black book'', Adobe Type 1 Font Format. Additionally, the charstring binary tokens are expanded into human-readable text form, using the names given in the black book and later documents describing Type 2 opcodes.

Examples 


% t1disasm Utopia-Regular.pfb Utopia-Regular.raw 
 % t1disasm Utopia-Regular.pfa Utopia-Regular.raw
In Subrs entries in Utopia-Regular.raw will look like 

dup 5 { 
         8 111 vstem 
         -12 128 hstem 
         707 -20 hstem 
         return 
         } |
and the CharStrings entries like 

/exclam { 
         58 242 hsbw 
         6 callsubr 
         5 4 callsubr 
         63 707 rmoveto 
         -54 0 -5 -22 4 -45 rrcurveto 
         40 -431 rlineto 
         29 hlineto 
         42 431 rlineto 
         4 45 -5 22 -55 0 rrcurveto 
         closepath
