DESCRIPTION

sdtudc_extract_ps is a utility which extracts user–defined characters created using type3creator and fontmanager as Type1 font format font files.

Beginning from Solaris 2.6, user–defined characters can be handled as separate font files without editing existing font files. They are defined in the following regions.

user–defined characters regions

ja/japanese	0xf5a1 - 0xfefe	JIS X 0208-1990 85 ku - 94 ku
	0x8ff5a1- 0x8ffefe	JIS X 0212-1990 85 ku - 94 ku

ja_JP.PCK	0xf040 - 0xf4fc	JIS X 0208-1990 85 ku - 94 ku
	0xf540 - 0xf9fc	JIS X 0212-1990 85 ku - 94 ku

So, if user–defined characters have registered by type3creator and fontmanager, and user want to re–use them under Solaris 2.6 and later, extract the the user–defined characters already registered and output them as a separate font file.

By default, sdtudc_extract_ps extracts until 20 font files which have UDC as prefix in every ku. This number is the total of the region for user–defined characters under Solaris 2.6. The following assumes the created font files by use of fontmanager to font.ps.

% sdtudc_extract_ps font.ps
UDC1.pfa . . . Done
UDC2.pfa . . . Done
     :
UDC20.pfa . . . Done

Next, move the extracted Type1 font files to the fixed directory (see sdtudctool(1)).
