CTAN update: mf2pt1
by CTAN Announcements 03 May '14

03 May '14

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the mf2pt1 package. Version number: 2.5a License type: lppl Summary description: Produce PostScript Type 1 fonts from Metafont source. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts from a Metafont source file. mf2pt1's advantage over tools such as TeXtrace and mftrace is that it does not rely on bitmap tracing and therefore can produce higher-quality Type 1 fonts than trace-based tools. The catch is that mf2pt1 imposes a number of restrictions on the Metafont input so it is not, as the name may imply, an automatic converter of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format. Version 2.5a is simply a documentation update in preparation for TeX Live 2014. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/mf2pt1 More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/mf2pt1 We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
