NAME

6       t1dotlessj - create a dotless-j PostScript Type 1 font
7

SYNOPSIS

9       t1dotlessj [OPTIONS...]  font [outputfile]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       T1dotlessj  creates  a PostScript Type 1 font whose only character is a
13       dotless 'j' matching the input  font's  design.   It  works  simply  by
14       removing  the dot from the input font's 'j'.  The output font has three
15       characters: '.notdef', 'space', and 'uni0237', where 'uni0237'  is  the
16       dotless 'j'.  The command fails if the input font already has a dotless
17       'j' character, or if there seems to be no dot  to  remove.   T1dotlessj
18       writes  the created PFA or PFB font to the standard output (but see the
19       --output option); if no input file is supplied, it reads a PFA  or  PFB
20       font from the standard input.
