It 29reads a Ppmdfont file on Standard Input and writes the C source code to 30Standard Output. 31.PP 32The output C source code has the font object's name hardcoded as 33\fBppmd_standardfont\fP, which you will definitely want to edit, 34because that is the name of the font built in to \fBlibnetpbm\fP. If 35you don't change it, it will conflict both cognitively and in program 36linking. There should obviously be an option on \fBppmdcfont\fP to 37choose this, but the development effort has not been justified so far. 38.PP 39See 40.BR "Libnetpbm PPM Drawing Function 41Manual" (3)\c 42\& for details on Ppmdfont files. 43 44.UN seealso 45.SH SEE ALSO 46.BR "ppmdraw" (1)\c 47\&, 48.BR "ppmddumpfont" (1)\c 49\&, 50.BR "ppmdcfont" (1)\c 51\&, 52.BR "Libnetpbm PPM Drawing Function Manual" (3)\c 53\& 54.SH DOCUMENT SOURCE 55This manual page was generated by the Netpbm tool 'makeman' from HTML 56source.
