NAME¶
mktextfm - create a TFM file for a font
SYNOPSIS¶
mktextfm [
options]
font
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete documentation for
this version of TeX can be found in the info file or manual
Kpathsea: A
library for path searching.
mktextfm is used to generate a
tfm file from the Metafont source
files for
font, if possible. If
destdir is given, the generated
file will be installed there, otherwise a (rather complicated) heuristic is
used.
The name of the generated file is printed on standard output.
mktextfm is typically called by other programs, rather than from the
command line.
OPTIONS¶
mktextfm accepts the following options:
- --destdir dir
- A directory name. If the directory is absolute, it is used
as-is. Otherwise, it is appended to the root destination directory set in
the script.
- --help
- Print help message and exit.
- --version
- Print version information and exit.
