README for ftp.math.psu.edu, /pub/simpson/chinese/pmc/mf/
This file created March 20, 1994 by Stephen G. Simpson
The preferred way to generate fonts for TeX is to use Metafont.
Unfortunately, the Metafont input files that would be required to
produce Chinese PK fonts do not exist (at least I don't know where to
get them). The Chinese PK fonts in Poor Man Chinese TeX were
generated not from Metafont input files but from freely available
Chinese HBF bitmap fonts. To see how this conversion was accomplished
in the case of kcm10*.300pk, look at the material in ftp.math.psu.edu,
/pub/simpson/chinese/hbf/hbftopk/.
The Chinese Chess font cchess46.300pk was generated by Metafont from
the Metafont input files cchess46.mf and ccpieces.mf that are in this
directory. See also ftp.math.psu.edu,
