TTNAMES 2.10
Copyright 1992 by Rufus S. Hendon. All rights reserved.
TTNAMES requires as argument a file specification, which may contain
wildcard characters. The file specification identifies one or more files that
contain TrueType fonts. This command, for example, will cause TTNAMES to
process all the TrueType fonts in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory:
ttnames \windows\system\*.ttf
For each font that matches the file specification, TTNAMES reports the
information specified in the 'name' table. This includes the copyright notice,
the font family name, the style name (= the font subfamily name), the unique
font identifier, the full font name, the font version, the PostScript name of
the font, and the trademark notice given in the font file for the Microsoft
(i.e. Windows) platform. By default, only the U.S. English versions of the
font names are reported. If, however, the file specification is followed by
the option /ALL (in uppercase or lowercase), the versions of the names in all
the languages given for the Microsoft platform are reported, with each
language identified. Here is an example of a command in which this option is
specified:
ttnames \windows\system\*.ttf /all
Note that only the U.S. English forms of the font family name, the style name,
and the full font name are obligatory in TrueType fonts. Also, even when
versions in other languages are included in the font file, all three names are
not necessarily given for languages other than U.S. English.
The output of TTNAMES can be redirected to a file. For example, the command
ttnames \windows\system\*.ttf /all >d:\ttnames.out
will write the output into the file D:\TTNAMES.OUT.
There is no limit on the number of font files TTNAMES can process. However,
files that are more than 256,000 (250K) bytes long will be skipped over with a
message explaining that the file is too long.
