PROGRAM:

NAME


ttfautohint - add new, auto-generated hints to a TrueType font

SYNOPSIS


ttfautohint [OPTION]... [IN-FILE [OUT-FILE]]

DESCRIPTION


Replace hints in TrueType font IN-FILE and write output to OUT-FILE. If OUT-FILE is
missing, standard output is used instead; if IN-FILE is missing also, standard input and
output are used.

The new hints are based on FreeType's auto-hinter.

This program is a simple front-end to the `ttfautohint' library.

Long options can be given with one or two dashes, and with and without equal sign between
option and argument. This means that the following forms are acceptable: `-foo=bar',
`--foo=bar', `-foo bar', `--foo bar'.

Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.

OPTIONS


--debug
print debugging information

-c, --composites
hint glyph composites also

-d, --dehint
remove all hints

-f, --fallback-script=S
set fallback script (default: dflt)

-G, --hinting-limit=N
switch off hinting above this PPEM value (default: 200); value 0 means no limit

-h, --help
display this help and exit

-i, --ignore-restrictions
override font license restrictions

-l, --hinting-range-min=N
the minimum PPEM value for hint sets (default: 8)

-n, --no-info
don't add ttfautohint info to the version string(s) in the `name' table

-p, --pre-hinting
apply original hints in advance

-r, --hinting-range-max=N
the maximum PPEM value for hint sets (default: 50)

-s, --symbol
input is symbol font

-v, --verbose
show progress information

-V, --version
print version information and exit

-w, --strong-stem-width=S
use strong stem width routine for modes S, where S is a string of up to three
letters with possible values `g' for grayscale, `G' for GDI ClearType, and `D' for
DirectWrite ClearType (default: G)

-W, --windows-compatibility
add blue zones for `usWinAscent' and `usWinDescent' to avoid clipping

-x, --increase-x-height=N
increase x height for sizes in the range 6<=PPEM<=N; value 0 switches off this
feature (default: 14)

-X, --x-height-snapping-exceptions=STRING
specify a comma-separated list of x-height snapping exceptions, for example "-9,
13-17, 19" (default: "")

The program accepts both TTF and TTC files as input. Use option -i only if you have a
legal permission to modify the font. The used PPEM value for option -p is FUnits per em,
normally 2048. With option -s, use default values for standard stem width and height,
otherwise they are derived from script-specific characters resembling the shape of
character `o'.

A hint set contains the optimal hinting for a certain PPEM value; the larger the hint set
range, the more hint sets get computed, usually increasing the output font size. Note,
however, that the `gasp' table of the output file enables grayscale hinting for all sizes
(limited by option -G, which is handled in the bytecode).

Option -f takes a four-letter string that identifies the script to be used as a fallback
for glyphs that have character codes outside of known script ranges. Possible values are

cyrl (Cyrillic), dflt (no script), grek (Greek), hebr (Hebrew), latn (Latin).

If no option -f is given, or if its value is `dflt', no fallback script is used.

A GUI version of this program is called `ttfautohintGUI'.
