NAME
     pfbtops  -  translate  a  PostScript  font in .pfb format to
     ASCII

SYNOPSIS
     pfbtops [ -v ] [ pfb_file ]

DESCRIPTION
     pfbtops translates a  PostScript  font  in  .pfb  format  to
     ASCII, splitting overlong lines in text packets into smaller
     chunks.  If pfb_file is omitted the pfb file  will  be  read
     from  the  standard input.  The ASCII format PostScript font
     will be written on the standard  output.   PostScript  fonts
     for MS-DOS are normally supplied in .pfb format.

     The  resulting ASCII format PostScript font can be used with
     groff.      It     must     first     be      listed      in
     /usr/share/groff/1.19.2/font/devps/download.

OPTIONS
