.TH MKTTFDIR 1 "May 10, 1998"
.AT 3
.SH NAME
mkttfdir \- create an index of TrueType font files for X-TrueType server in a directory.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B mkttfdir [-dheow] [-inum] [directory-name ... ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
For each directory argument,
.I mkttfdir
reads all of the TrueType font files in the directory and parses them.
It then creates suitable font names and writes them into "fonts.dir"
in the same directory.  The X-TrueType server (xfs-xtt) and any X
server which suports the X-TrueType ability use "fonts.dir" to find
TrueType font files.
.pp
.I mkttfdir
does not create a "fonts.scale" file as this is not used by the
X-TrueType (xtt) extension.  The "fonts.dir" created by
.I mkttfdir
may not be compatible with the xfsft font server do to the inclusion
of data for the TTCap extension, which xfsft does not know how to
parse.
.SH OPTIONS
.IP -h

.IP -d
Dump created information on screen instead of "fonts.dir" file.

.IP -j

.IP -o

.IP -i\fInumber\fP
Use this number as an auto-italic field if you choose -o option.
.IP -w
Use this to list any files for which mkfont will not create an entry
in "fonts.dir"
