X Version 11                                      fstobdf 1.0.7                                       FSTOBDF(1)

Description

       The fstobdf program reads a font from a font server and prints a BDF file on the standard output that may
       be used to recreate the font.  This is useful in testing servers, debugging font metrics, and reproducing
       lost BDF files.

Environment

FONTSERVER
               The  default  server  to use.  The server name must be specified in one of the formats defined in
               the FontServerNames section of X(7).

Name

       fstobdf - generate BDF font from X font server

Options

-serverservername
               This  option  specifies  the  server  from  which  the  font  should be read.  servername must be
               specified in one of the formats defined in the FontServerNames  section  of  X(7).    If  not
               specified, the server name in the FONTSERVER environment variable is used.

       -fnfontname
               This option specifies the font for which a BDF file should be generated.

       -version
               This option prints the program version and then exits without generating a BDF file.
