.
.I pfbtops
translates a PostScript Type\~1 font in Printer Font Binary (PFB) format
to Printer Font ASCII (PFA) format,
splitting overlong lines in text packets into smaller chunks.
.
If
.I pfb-file
is omitted,
the PFB file will be read from the standard input stream.
.
The PFA font will be written on the standard output stream.
.
PostScript fonts for MS-DOS were historically supplied in PFB format.
.
Use of a PostScript Type\~1 font with
.I groff
requires conversion of its metrics
(AFM file)
to a
.I groff
font description file;
see
.MR afmtodit 1 .
.
.
.P
The
.B \-\-help
option displays a usage message,
while
.B \-v
and
.B \-\-version
show version information;
all exit afterward.
