.SH DESCRIPTION
vfont2psf converts a font in the BSD vfont(5) format to the PC Screen
Font format.
.LP 
Since characters in a vfont can be of variable size, and PSF is a fixed-size
format, all characters will be increased to the size of the largest character
in the file.
.\"
.\"------------------------------------------------------------------
.\"
.SH OPTIONS
.B --psf1
Output in PSF version 1 format.
.TP
.B --v2
Output in PSF version 2 format.
.TP
.B --align
In a vfont each character has a basepoint, and when characters are printed 
the basepoints are used to align them. If this option is present, the 
character bitmaps are moved so that they align correctly; this may further
increase the size of bitmaps compared to when the option is not used.
