ttf2volt - create VOLT project from existing OpenType font file
ttf2volt [options] infontfile [outfontfile]
Creates a VOLT project from an existing OpenType font file.
-a allow non-adobe glyph names -g n group creation threshold -l file emit log messages to named file -r retain GPOS, GSUB, and GDEF tables in output font -s do not send warnings to stdout (will still go to log) -t file name of replacement VOLT tags file if needed. -v file Volt project source (.vtp) file to create
Attempts to create a VOLT project from an existing OpenType font by reading and interpreting the existing GDEF, GPOS, and GSUB tables. Not every OpenType rule can be mimiced in VOLT; warnings are issued when ttf2volt cannot handle something.
In normal usage, specify either outfontfile (to create a font ready to be opened by VOLT) and/or the -v option (to create a VOLT project source that can be imported into the font).
The group creation threshold option sets the minimum number of glyphs that ttf2volt will put into a group for the purposes of building a lookup.
Lookups currently supported (type[.format]):
GSUB: 1 2 3 4 6.3 GPOS 1 2 3 4 5 8.3
