+

+in the subdirectories.

+
+BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTENTS
+
+MFTOEPS: a METAFONT package for generating (encapsulated PostScript) files
+ readable by CorelDRAW!(R), Adobe Illustrator(TM) and Fontographer(R).
+ METAFONT writes PostScript code to a LOG-file, and from the LOG-file
+ the code can be extracted by either TeX or AWK. DOS batch files,
+ TeX source, and AWK source are placed in the subdirectory PROGS.
+
+EPSTOMF: a tiny AWK script for converting EPS files into MF lingo.
+ EPS files should conform the conventions of the MFTOEPS package.
+ Such files are generated, e.g., by a Ghostscript utility which
+ can be found in a directory: support/ps_conv/ on every CTAN
+ or ftp.GUST.org.pl/pub/TeX/support/ps_conv/.
+
+ROEX: a set of METAFONT macros for accomplishing operations known
+ as `removing overlaps' and `expanding stroke.' It can work
+ with ``normal'' METAFONT programs, but is meant mainly for
+ using with MFTOEPS; in this context it seems most natural.
+
+PROGS: a directory containing DOS batch files, AWK and TeX programs
+ used by the packages listed above.
