+HPtfm2pl is a program for creating TeX PL files from HP AutoFont Support
+metric files. HP provides Autofont support files for all of the built-in
+printer fonts and all of the cartridges that it sells. If you do not have
+autofont support files for your HP product, contact your HP dealer.
+
+The program PLtoTF will create TeX TFM files from PL files. The PLtoTF
+program should be part of any complete TeX distribution.
+
+See HPTFM2PL.DOC for more information.
+
+On caveat, the ligature files in this distribution are derived from the
+SFPtoPK ligature files. SFPtoPK also remaps characters so these ligature
+files are different. They are also wrong if I made any mistakes reading
+the symbol set layouts at the back of my PCL III reference manual. Sorry
+about that. Please let me know if you think that you have found an
+incorrect ligature file.
+
+Let me know if you think anything else is incorrect as well. Heck, you
+could even let me know if you think everything _is_ correct! ;-)
+
+ Regards,
+ norm
