Realistically, pfa is not really human-readable or -editable. However,
it does somtimes come in handy when you just want to tweak a few
parameters in a material or texture definition. The only real source of
documentation is, literally, the source -
/usr/share/Performer/src/lib/libpfdb/libpfpfb.
The .pfa format is really just an ASCII version of .pfb, and both the .pfa
and .pfb loader code is contained in pfpfb.[ch]. It's not exactly the
easiest code to read, but it's not hard to figure out what's going on.
Start with the function pfdLoadFile_pfa(filename).
