(ovp2ovf is based on\nthe WEB source code for vptovf(1).)\n\n### OPTIONS\n\n#### -help\n\n#### -verbose\n\ndisplay progress reports\n\n#### -version\n\noutput version information and exit\n\n### FILES\n\nOFMFILE\nOmega Font Metric file\n\nOVFFILE\nOmega Virtual Font file\n\nOVPFILE\nOmega Virtual Property List file\n\n### BUGS\n\nNone known, but report any found to <omega@ens.fr> (mailing list).  You should also check  to\nsee if the bug is in vptovf(1).\n\n### SEE ALSO\n\nomega(1), ofm2opl(1), ovf2ovp(1), pltotf(1), tftopl(1), vftovp(1), vptovf(1)\n\nDraft Manual for the Omega System (omega-manual.dvi).\n\nWeb page: <http://www.gutenberg.eu.org/omega/>\n\n### AUTHOR\n\nAccording to the WEB documentation:\n\nVPtoVF  is  an  extended  version of the program PLtoTF, which is part of the standard\nTeXware library.  OVP2OVF is an extended version of VPtoVF  that  allows  much  larger\nfonts.   The idea of a virtual font was inspired by the work of David R. Fuchs who de‐\nsigned a similar set of conventions in 1984 while developing a device driver  for  Ar‐\nborText, Inc.  He wrote a somewhat similar program called PLFONT.\n\nThe  primary authors of Omega are John Plaice <plaice@cse.unsw.edu.au> and Yannis Haralambous\n<yannis@fluxus-virus.com>.\n\nThis manual page was written by C.M.
