For information about how to interpret the syntax, see BNF grammars.

Arguments

Source font file formats

Source files for the fontcomp tool can be in either FSC or the EFF format.

The production of both ANSI1 and ANSI2 (ISO LATIN1 and ISO LATIN2) fonts from a single EFF source-file is possible if two mapfiles are supplied by EFF. The fontcomp tool is then run twice - once using each mapfile.
