| Summary : A converter for PostScript(TM) font metric files, for use with TeX
|
Description :
tetex-afm provides afm2tfm, a converter for PostScript font metric files.
PostScript fonts are accompanied by .afm font metric files which describe
the characteristics of each font. To use PostScript fonts with TeX, TeX
needs .tfm files that contain similar information. Afm2tfm will convert
.afm files to .tfm files.
If you are installing tetex in order to use the TeX text formatting system,
you will need to install tetex-afm. You will also need to install
tetex-dvilj (for converting .dvi files to HP PCL format for printing on HP
and HP compatible printers), tetex-dvips (for converting .dvi files to
PostScript format for printing on PostScript printers), tetex-latex (a
higher level formatting package which provides an easier-to-use interface
for TeX) and tetex-xdvi (for previewing .dvi files in X). Unless you\'re
an expert at using TeX, you\'ll probably also want to install the tetex-doc
package, which includes documentation for TeX.
