15.2 Invoking GSrenderfont

This section describes the options that GSrenderfont accepts. See section 3.3 Command-line options, for general option syntax.

You must specify either `-font' or a single non-option argument, so GSrenderfont knows what font to work on. See the previous section for more details.

`-encoding scheme'

Read `scheme.enc' to define the encoding of the output font; default is `dvips'.

`-font FontName'

Render the PostScript font FontName (e.g., `Times-Roman').

`-help'

Print a usage message. See section 3.3.2 Common options.

`-map filename'

Use filename for the filename-to-PostScript name mapping file; default is

/usr/local/lib/tex/dvips/psfonts.map

`-output-file filename'

Use `filename.dpipk' for the final PK output.

`-point-size unsigned'

Render the output at unsigned points; default is 10.

Output progress reports.
