NAME
       ptftopl, uptftopl - Convert Japanese pTeX font metric (JFM) files to propery list

SYNOPSIS
       ptftopl [OPTIONS] tfm_name[.tfm] [pl_name[.pl]]

DESCRIPTION
       The  ptftopl program translates a Japanese pTeX font metric (JFM) file to a Japanese prop-
       erty list (JPL) file.  It also serves as a TFM/JFM-file validating program.

       The uptftopl program is a Unicode-enabled version of ptftopl.

       In the following sections, we refer to these programs as (u)ptftopl.

       (u)ptftopl is upper compatible with tftopl; if the input TFM file is for roman  fonts,  it
       is translated into an ordinary property list file.  The difference between ptftopl and up-
       tftopl lies in the internal encoding: when the input is a JFM file, ptftopl always  treats
       it as a JIS-encoded JFM; on the other hand, uptftopl treats it as a Unicode-encoded JFM by
       default.

OPTIONS
       Compared to tftopl, the following option is added to (u)ptftopl.

       -kanji string
              Sets the output Japanese Kanji code.  The string can  be  one  of  the  followings:
              euc (EUC-JP),  jis (ISO-2022-JP), sjis (Shift_JIS), utf8 (UTF-8), uptex (UTF-8; up-
              tftopl only).

       When one of euc, jis, sjis or utf8 is specified, both ptftopl and uptftopl treats the  in-
       put JFM as JIS-encoded.  When uptex is specified with uptftopl, it treats the input JFM as
       Unicode-encoded.
