The output file can be in MacBinary II, AppleSingle,\nAppleDouble, or BinHex format, or it can be a raw resource fork. The default is MacBinary II;\nuse  an  option to choose a different format. If the output file is not specified output goes\nto the standard output.\n\nWARNING: The output of t1mac is not sufficient to use the font, since Macintoshes can't  read\nraw  Type  1 fonts. You will need to create a font suitcase containing bitmap fonts if you do\nnot have such a suitcase for the font already.  t1mac cannot help you do this.\n",
