Hi,
I have .pfb and .afm files in the texmf tree. Is it possible to use them in MKIV without having to generate .tfm, .vf, .enc, .map files.
yes, as mkiv directly uses the afm/pfb files nowadays i put such fonts in: texmf-fonts/fonts/data/vendor/* instead of the many paths; don't forget to run "luatools --generate" after installation; the data path is configured already in the minimals you access such fonts by filename or fontname and they can have > 255 characters; no encoding, just simulated unicode 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
