Qualifiers

/MINBOX
      /MINBOX
      /NOMINBOX

   On VAX only, specifies that the compiler produce the minimum
   bounding box for each character in the font and adjust values
   for the left bearing, right bearing, ascent, and descent of
   each character accordingly. Character width is not affected.
   Specifying the /MINBOX qualifier is equivalent to converting a
   fixed font to a monospaced font.

   Using the /MINBBOX qualifier has two advantages. Because the font
   compiler produces minimum instead of fixed bounding boxes, the
   resulting SNF file is significantly smaller than the comparable
   fixed font SNF file. Consequently, both disk requirements for
   storing the font and server memory requirements when a client
   loads the font are reduced. Also, because the resulting font
   comprises minimum inkable characters, server performance when
   writing text is increased as much as 20 percent.


/OUTPUT
      /OUTPUT[=filename]
      /NOOUTPUT

   Specifies the file name and type of the resulting PCF (Alpha) or
   SNF (VAX) file. The default output file name is the file name of
   the BDF file being converted. The default output PCF file type is
   .PCF. The default output SNF file type is .DECW$FONT.

   Compiler output consists of a header file that contains font
   information, character metrics, amd the image of each character
   in the font.


/REPORT
      /REPORT
      /NOREPORT

   On VAX only, directs the compiler to report information about
   the font and the conversion process, including BDF information,
   font properties, compiler generation information, and metrics.
   The /REPORT qualifier also causes the compiler to illustrate each
   glyph in the font.
