pfb2pfa utility

The pdf2afp and ps2afp transforms use ASCII fonts.

InfoPrint Manager Transform Feature includes the pfb2pfa utility to transform binary PS Type 1 fonts to ASCII fonts. You can then use the Resources distributor dialog to copy the ASCII fonts within the directory structure of Transform Feature so that the pdf2afp and ps2afp transforms can access these fonts. You can copy a single ASCII font or an archive of ASCII fonts.
