Gives about 7 % pdftex speed gain when typesetting fiction-type stuff. 2. writet3.c now also with standard /FontMatrix [0.001 0 0 0.001 0 0], tidied up a little (.pgc part untested). No need anymore (hope it's right) to handle PK fonts specially by adv_char_width() in pdftex.web. 3. wrong use of printf() at a few places corrected by Martin. Work in progess, not safe for production. Needs more testing, particularly with PK fonts.
