----- Forwarded message from Harald Harders <h.harders(a)tu-bs.de> ----- I have uploaded kerntest-v1_10.tar.gz to ftp.dante.de. Please unpack it to macros/latex/contrib/kerntest. License is LPPL. >From the README: Print tables and generate mtx files that help to adjust kernings This class makes it easy to generate tables that show many different kerning pairs of an arbitrary font, usable by LaTeX. It shows the kerning values that are used by the the font by default. In addition, this class enables the user to alternate the kernings and to observe the results. Automatically, an mtx file is generated that can be loaded by fontinst to introduce the user-made kernings into the virtual font for LaTeX. The Makefile contains the item `texlive' for producing a TeXLive directory structure. An xml file is contained for the catalogue. ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for the upload.
