mktextfm - create a TFM file for a font
SYNOPSIS
mktextfm [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.
OPTIONS
mktextfm 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.
