## NAME
       t1unmac - translate a Mac PostScript Type 1 font into PFA or PFB format

## SYNOPSIS
       **t1unmac** [**-a**|**-b**] [**-r**] [_input_ [_output_]]

## DESCRIPTION
       **t1unmac**  extracts  POST  resources  from  a  Macintosh PostScript font file and creates a PFA
       (hexadecimal) or PFB (binary) font file. The file _input_ should be in MacBinary I or  II,  Ap‐
       pleSingle,  AppleDouble, or BinHex format, or it can be a raw resource fork. If the file is a
       raw resource fork, you need to give the `--raw' option; otherwise  **t1unmac**  should  automati‐
       cally  figure out what kind of file you have. If the file _output_ is not specified output goes
       to the standard output.

## OPTIONS
       **--pfa**, **-a**
            Output in PFA (ASCII) format.

       **--pfb**, **-b**
            Output in PFB (binary) format. This is the default.

       **--raw**, **-r**
            Indicates that the input is a raw resource fork.

### --macbinary
            Indicates that the input is in MacBinary I or II format.

### --applesingle
            Indicates that the input is in AppleSingle format.

### --appledouble
            Indicates that the input is in AppleDouble format.

### --binhex
            Indicates that the input is in BinHex 4.0 format.

       **--block-length=**_num_, **-l** _num_
            PFB only: Set the maximum output block length to _num._  The default length is as large as
            memory allows.

       **--line-length=**_num_, **-l** _num_
            PFA  only:  Set  the maximum length of encrypted lines in the output to _num._  (These are
            the lines consisting wholly of hexadecimal digits.) The default is 64.

## EXAMPLES
       On Mac OS X, you can use **t1unmac** to translate a font into PFA or PFB format as follows:
       % **t1unmac** --raw FONTFILENAME/..namedfork/rsrc > OUTPUT
