T1LIBCONFIG(8) T1LIBCONFIG(8)
NAME
t1libconfig - create the t1lib.config and FontDataBase files for t1lib
SYNOPSIS
t1libconfig [ -v,--version ] [ -h,--help ] --force ] [ fontdirectory...
]
DESCRIPTION
t1libconfig scans a list of directories for Type 1 fonts and font met-
ric files, and generates a configuration file and font database file
for the t1lib rasterizer library accordingly. By default, it looks in
all subdirectories of /usr/share/X11/fonts, and in
/usr/lib/ghostscript. Extra directories to search may be specified on
the command line. The t1libconfig script tries not to scan the same
directory twice (this is, however, not foolproof, since symbolic links
may result in different paths pointing to the same directory on
GNU/Linux systems).
OPTIONS
-v,--version
Print the version of t1libconfig and exit.
-h,--help
Print help about usage and exit.
--force
Force the generation of new configuration files even if these
files already exist on the system.
FILES
/etc/t1lib/t1lib.config Contains configuration information for t1lib,
including colon-separated lists of paths to
Type 1 font files and font metrics files, and
the location of the default font database file
/etc/t1lib/FontDataBase Contains a list of the names of Type 1 font
files to be used by t1lib.
