bdfresize - Resize BDF Format Font
bdfresize [-v] [-b number] [-[whf] factor] [bdf-file]
Bdfresize is a command to magnify or reduce fonts which are described
with the standard BDF format. If bdf-file is not specified, it reads
from stdin. Bdfresize outputs the result to stdout in BDF format. Some
COMMENT lines are inserted to the result font. FONT name is modified depending
on the resize factor if the name is described in XLFD format. SIZE,
FONTBOUNDINGBIX, SWIDTH, DWIDTH, BBX and some property lines are also
modified. Other lines are copied from source. If a syntax error occurs in a
source font, bdfresize notices it and stops the whole process.
