are quite different. Both are included in the attached zip.

R hm, yuu can always run the latest with
texmfstart texfont ..... that will take the one from the tex tree 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------

R
But it's true that some variables ($lm and such) were added recently without declaring them first and adding some default value somewhere, so perl complains about "undeclared variables" (adding "my $lm" at the beginning surely helps, but that's not the only undeclared variable).
hm, yuu can always run the latest with
texmfstart texfont .....

The problem is exactly that: the latest version "doesn't work". But I can't comment much more - whenever I try to use it under windows I give up trying to find the cause of the problems and proceed manually (texfont claims to have produced such-and-such files, but no files are created and no checking is made whether they are produced or not - some steps which return an error are simply ignored).
