[NTG-pdftex] pdftex-1.20-rc4

[The Thanh Han]

I tested the following file

============================================
\let\normalfont\font
\def\font#1=#2 {%
  \message{Adding mapline: +#2 <#2.pfb}%   
  \pdfmapline{+#2 <#2.pfb}\normalfont#1=#2 }

\pdfoutput=1
\font\f=cmx10 at 100pt
\f Hello
\bye
============================================

and it seems to be ok. What error did you get?

The \pdfmapfile primitive is very simple. It simply scans a <balanced text>
and calls a  C-subroutine to process it.
