TITLE

ttfremap - remaps the cmap of a TrueType Font

SYNOPSIS

    TTFRemap -c file [-r] [-s | -u] <infile> <outfile>

OPTIONS

  -r      Replace (copy the old cmap before mapping)
  -s      Convert to symbol encoding
  -u      Convert to UGL encoding

DESCRIPTION

Remaps the MS cmap of a font without removing any glyphs. Updates the OS/2 table according to first and last char of new cmap. The changes file consists of lines of any of the following forms:

    uni_first, uni_to
    uni_first, uni_last, uni_to
    g, gid_first, uni_to
    g, gid_first, gid_last, uni_to
    n, name_first, uni_to
    n, name_first, name_last, uni_to
    

where uni_first (gid_first) is the first of a range of Unicodes (glyph IDs) in the source font, uni_last (gid_last) is the last of that range (if not specified, default is same as uni_first (gid_last)), and uni_to is the start of the sequential set of Unicodes that will be altered in the output cmap so they map to the specified range. NOTE: Unicode values should be in hex, glyph IDs are decimal, names are simple strings.
