CTAN package update: mf2pt1
by CTAN Announcements 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

The package below has been updated at tug.ctan.org ans should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ============================================================================ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: mf2pt1 Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /support/mf2pt1 Summary description: Produce PostScript Type 1 fonts from Metafont source License type: lppl 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. This release substantially alters the (internal) is_clockwise macro with the intention of making it a lot more robust. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/mf2pt1 .

This update supports optional arguments whose default value is the value of a preceding argument. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/newcommand .
