NAME
     ucs2any  -  generate  BDF  fonts  containing  subsets of ISO
     10646-1 codepoints

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/bin/ucs2any [ +d | -d ] source-name { mapping-file reg-
     istry-encoding } ...

DESCRIPTION
     ucs2any  allows  one to generate from an ISO 10646-1 encoded
     BDF font other BDF fonts in  any  possible  encoding.   This
     way,  one can derive from a single ISO 10646-1 master font a
     whole set of 8-bit fonts in all ISO 8859 and  various  other
     encodings.

OPTIONS
     +d   puts  DEC  VT100  graphics  characters  in the C0 range
          (default for upright, character-cell fonts).

     -d   omits DEC VT100 graphics characters from the  C0  range
          (default  for all font types except upright, character-
          cell fonts).

OPERANDS
     source-name
          is the name of an ISO 10646-1 encoded BDF file.

     mapping-file
          is the name of a character  set  table  like  those  at
          <ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/>.   These files
          can  also  typically  be   found   installed   in   the
          /usr/share/fonts/X11/util directory.

     registry-encoding
          are  the  CHARSET_REGISTRY  and  CHARSET_ENCODING field
          values for the font name (XLFD)  of  the  target  font,
          separated by a hyphen.

     Any  number  of  mapping-file  and registry-encoding operand
     pairs may be specified.

EXAMPLE
     The command
          ucs2any  6x13.bdf   8859-1.TXT   iso8859-1   8859-2.TXT
          iso8859-2
     will    generate    the    files    6x13-iso8859-1.bdf   and
     6x13-iso8859-2.bdf.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
     Hopefully a future release will have a facility  similar  to
     ucs2any  built  into the server, and reencode ISO 10646-1 on
     the fly, because storing the same fonts  in  many  different
