.TH T1LIBCONFIG 8
.SH NAME
.B t1libconfig
\- create the t1lib.config and FontDataBase files for t1lib
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B t1libconfig
[

.SH DESCRIPTION
.B t1libconfig
scans a list of directories for Type 1 fonts and font metric files,
and generates a configuration file and font database file for the
.B t1lib
rasterizer library accordingly.  By default, it looks in all
subdirectories of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts, and in
/usr/lib/ghostscript.  Extra directories to search may be specified on 
the command line.  The
.B t1libconfig
script tries not to scan the same directory twice (this is, however,
not foolproof, since /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts and /usr/lib/X11/fonts
typically point to the same directory on GNU/Linux systems).
