MKTEXTFM(1)MKTEXTFM(1)NAMEmktextfm - create a TFM file for a font
SYNOPSISmktextfm [options] font
DESCRIPTION
This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The com-
plete documentation for this version of TeX can be found
in the info file or manual Kpathsea: A library for path
searching.
mktextfm is used to generate a tfm file from the Metafont
source files for font, if possible. If destdir is given,
the generated file will be installed there, otherwise a
(rather complicated) heuristic is used.
The name of the generated file is printed on standard out-
put.
mktextfm is typically called by other programs, rather
than from the command line.
OPTIONSmktextfm accepts the following options:
--destdir dir
A directory name. If the directory is absolute, it
is used as-is. Otherwise, it is appended to the
root destination directory set in the script.
--help Print help message and exit.
--version
Print version information and exit.
