description

ovp2ovf translates a human-readable virtual property list (OVP) file, OVPFILE, into a virtual font (OVF) file, OVFFILE and its companion font metric (OFM) file, OFMFILE.

The program also works with TeX VP files, producing VF and TFM files. (ovp2ovf is based on the WEB source code for vptovf(1).)

author

According to the WEB documentation:

VPtoVF is an extended version of the program PLtoTF, which is part of the standard TeXware library. OVP2OVF is an extended version of VPtoVF that allows much larger fonts. The idea of a virtual font was inspired by the work of David R. Fuchs who designed a similar set of conventions in 1984 while developing a device driver for ArborText, Inc. He wrote a somewhat similar program called PLFONT.
