Now that I finally have Context running I'm trying to install a number of type1 fonts. I've read the Texfont manual, but I couldn't find answers to these questions: 1. Can Texfont recursively process a font tree?
I have a directory font tree like this:
c:\fonts\type1\font-family1 c:\fonts\type1\font-family2 c:\fonts\type1\font-family3
each font-family subdirectory has a number of .afm files. If I set --sourcepath to c:\fonts\type1 can Texfont recurse all the subdirectories of the font families and locate and process the .afm files?
2. Can Texfont handle .afm files with extensions in uppercase?
Most of my type1 font files are in uppercase like: XYZ_____.AFM I can only get Texfont to process these files if I first rename them to lowercase, like XYZ_____.AFM
since you're new to context you can consider skipping pdftex and moving on to either xetex or luatex (which uses context mkiv) for luatex/mkiv you don't need to mess around with fonts as this combo directly handles afm/pfb files so there is no need for creating tfm metrics Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
