ttf2afm  is  used to generate Adobe Font Metrics (AFM) files for TrueType (TTF) fonts to allow them to be
       used with TeX.

       ttf2afm takes the name of a TrueType font file as a required argument.  It may  also  take  one  or  more
       options from the list below (-i and -u are mutually exclusive).

-i     force printing glyph names in form `index'decnum-u     force printing glyph names in form `uni'hexnum-cname
              write encoding tables to file name.eMN, where M is the platform ID and N is the encoding ID

       -v     print program version

       -eenc encode AFM output using encoding vector from enc-ooutfile
              output to file outfile instead of standard output

       -mnum use Unicode mapping num in the font

       Platform numbers can be one of

       0      Apple Unicode

       1      Macintosh

       2      ISO

       3      Microsoft

       Encodings can be
