+pamtompfont - Convert Netpbm image to Mplayer bitmap font file
+
+.UN synopsis
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBpamtompfont\fP
+[\fInetpbmfile\fP]
+.PP
+All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
+You may use two hyphens instead of one. You may separate an option
+name and its value with white space instead of an equals sign.
+
+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBpamtompfont\fP reads a Netpbm image (PNM or PAM) and converts it
+to an Mplayer bitmap font raster file.
+.PP
+This is the original font format used by Mplayer (for subtitles,
+on-screen messages, etc.), before it had the ability to use Freetype
+to access standard fonts.
+.PP
+The format was apparently an image format before Mplayer adopted it
+for fonts, but I have no idea where it came from or where else it might
+be used.
+.PP
+An Mplayer bitmap font consists of a font descriptor file and
+raster files. The font descriptor file identifies the raster files by
+file name. A raster file contains a single rectangular raster image
+which contains an arrangement of a bunch of glyphs. Each glyph is a
+rectangular image and the font descriptor indicates where in the image
+the glyph for each codepoint is. Every glyph in the font has the same
+height, so the font descriptor just indicates the file position in the
+raster file of the to left corner of the glyph, and the width of the
+glyph in pixels.
