NAME
     pdffonts - Portable Document Format (PDF) font analyzer (version 3.03)

SYNOPSIS
     pdffonts [options] [PDF-file]

DESCRIPTION
     Pdffonts  lists  the  fonts  used	in a Portable Document Format (PDF) file
     along with various information for each font.

     If PDF-file is '-', it reads the PDF file from stdin.

     The following information is listed for each font:

     name   the font name, exactly as given in the PDF file (potentially includ-
	    ing a subset prefix)

     type   the font type - see below for details

     encoding
	    the font encoding

     emb    "yes" if the font is embedded in the PDF file

     sub    "yes" if the font is a subset

     uni    "yes" if there is an explicit "ToUnicode" map in the PDF  file  (the
	    absence  of  a  ToUnicode map doesn't necessarily mean that the text
	    can't be converted to Unicode)

     object ID
	    the font dictionary object ID (number and generation)

     PDF files can contain the following types of fonts:

	    Type 1
	    Type 1C - aka Compact Font Format (CFF)
	    Type 3
	    TrueType
	    CID Type 0 - 16-bit font with no specified type
	    CID Type 0C - 16-bit PostScript CFF font
	    CID TrueType - 16-bit TrueType font

OPTIONS
     -f number
	    Specifies the first page to analyze.

     -l number
	    Specifies the last page to analyze.

     -subst
	    List the substitute fonts that poppler will  use  for  non	embedded
	    fonts.

     -opw password
	    Specify  the  owner  password for the PDF file.  Providing this will
	    bypass all security restrictions.

     -upw password
	    Specify the user password for the PDF file.

     -v     Print copyright and version information.

     -h     Print usage information.  (-help and --help are equivalent.)
