Packed font files .RI ( pk " files)" are much smaller than the corresponding .I gf files, so they are generally the font format of choice. .PP The .I gf_file_name on the command line must be complete. Because the resolution is part of the extension, it would not make sense to append a default extension as is done with \*(TX or DVI-reading software. The .I pk_file_name defaults to the same (stripped) name as .IR gf_file_name , and it is placed in the current working directory with the .I pk suffix replacing .IR gf . For example, the input file .I cmr10.300gf would become .IR cmr10.300pk . .\"===================================================================== .SH OPTIONS Unless the .B \-v switch is given, .B gftopk operates silently. With .BR \-v , the version number of the program and statistics about the packing are output to .IR stdout . .\"===================================================================== .SH ENVIRONMENT .B gftopk looks for .I gf_file_name first in the current directory. If it is not present there, it uses the environment variable GFFONTS. If that is not set, it uses the variable TEXFONTS. If that is not set, it uses the system default: .br .I @DEFAULT_GF_PATH@ .PP See .BR tex (1) for the details of the searching. .\"===================================================================== .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR gftype (1), .BR pktogf (1), .BR pktype (1). .br Donald E. Knuth et al., .IR \*(MFware . .\"===================================================================== .SH AUTHORS Tomas Rokicki wrote the program. It was published as part of the .I \*(MFware technical report, available from the \*(TX Users Group. Paul Richards originally ported it to Unix.
