Conversion Process

Type 1 Options

To check and set parameters for generating Type 1 fonts, click the

Preferences button at the bottom of the Main Window and refer to the

Generate Type 1 section of the Preferences dialog.

General Type 1 Options

Generate Type 1 Page of the Preferences Dialog

There are only four controls on the Generate Type 1 page:

Use FontName instead

of FullName

If this option is checked, TransType will name the files

of Type 1 fonts on the basis of FontName. If this option

is off, TransType will name the files on the basis of

FullName. In some cases this affects the font menu

name too. We recommend you keep this option

switched on

Build Standard

Encoding if possible

If this option is checked, TransType will try to replace

the encoding information in the font with a reference

to the Adobe’s StandardEncoding vector. This

replacement is possible only if the destination font

conforms to the Adobe standard encoding table. This

option is on by default

Always decompose

composites

If this option is checked, TransType will decompose all

composite characters imported from the source font

and write them decomposed to the destination font.

This option is off by default
