# alldc(1)

force the most important DC-fonts to be calculated

## NAME

alldc - force the most important DC-fonts to be calculated

## SYNOPSIS

**alldc**

## DESCRIPTION

*alldc* forces a large number of DC-style Fonts to be calculated as pixel files. This is done through running [*dvips*(1)](/dvips/1.md) over a certain test-file. Therefore, the fonts are created in the resolution needed by dvips.

*alldc* does not recalculate existing fonts (as long as the Metafont mode does not change).

## SEE ALSO

[allcm(1)](/allcm/1.md), [allneeded(1)](/allneeded/1.md), [fontimport(1)](/fontimport/1.md), [fontexport(1)](/fontexport/1.md).
