+========================================
+PXLgen (C) 1990,1991 by MicroPress Inc.
+========================================
+
+Summary.
+-------
+
+PXLgen is fast font scaling program designed to generate fonts for use
+with generic TeX programs. PXLgen can generate either .PXL or .PK
+files.
+
+Fonts.
+-----
+
+This version of PXLgen comes with three fonts, MVTT10, MVSSBX10, and
+MVCLOI. MVTT10 and MVSSBX10 are the MicroPress variants of the traditional
+CMTT10 and CMSSBX10 typefaces. These fonts contain more characters than
+their CM counterparts. In particular, they contain proper paragraph and
+section signs (\P and \S), all ASCII characters omitted from the CM fonts and
+european currency symbols. MVCLOI is a non-CM design, based on Cloister (or
+Old English). These three fonts together with the program can be freely
+distributed. Also available (but NOT freely distributed) are about 200 more
+fonts, including many traditional text and display typefaces, as well as
+many foreign and symbol fonts.
+
+Distribution.
+------------
+
+This version of PXLGen is thereby made available to TeX community for free
+distribution. The program itself, the included fonts and the output from these
+fonts can be freely copied.
+
+
+Usage.
+-----
+
+You can run PXLGen either from command line or from the MAKEfont menu.
+MakeFONT includes on-line help, and we will not attempt to describe its
+easy-to-navigate menus.
+
+To run PXLgen from the command line, type
+
+ C> PXLgen <options> input_file [output_file]
+
+where the name of the input_file is MVTT10, MVSSBX10 or MVCLOI; the optional
+output_name refers to the name of the .PXL or .PK file you are creating.
+If output_name is missing, PXLgen uses the input_name. The names may include
+directories and/or drives.
+
+Example: Type
+
+ C> PXLGEN MVTT10
+
+to generate a 300-dpi font MVTT10.PK.
+
+
+Options:
+
+ -Q suppress copyright note.
+
+ -X generates PXL file
+ -4 generates dword aligned PXL file
+ -K generates PK file (default)
+
+ -R#### defines resolution of the font. The default is
+ 300 (10 points on a 300 dpi device)
+ -A##.## defines aspect ratio of the font. The default is
+ 1.0. 2.0 makes the font twice as high.
+ -S##.## defines slant of the font. The default is
+ 0.0. 1.0 makes font slanted 45 degrees right,
+ -1.0 makes font slanted 45 degrees left.
+ -C defines SmallCaps font
+ -O defines Outline font
+ -Wxx defines Shadow font, xx is NE, NW, SE or SW
+ -F## defines Shaded font, ## is 1 through 23 for
+ different shades.
+
+ These options can be used in any combination.
+
+Notice that the usage of -A, -S, and/or -C changes the proportions of the
+font and requires usage of a different TFM file. Therefore, if you change one
+of these parameters, you MUST choose a new name for the font and generate a
+matching .TFM file.
+
+TFMGen
+------
+
+The TFMGen utility generates proper .TFM files.
+It's syntax is identical to the PXLgen's. TFMgen can also be accessed from
+the MakeFont menu.
+
+
+Limitations.
+------------
+This version of TFMGen will generate up to 2400 dpi fonts. (80 point on
+a 300 dpi device). Some of the fonts can be generated up to 120-140 points,
+depending on the complexity of the images and settings of Slant, Aspect Ratio
+and SmallCaps parameters. If you attempt to generate a font that is too large,
+PXLgen will report OVERFLOW and quit.
+
+Shipping list.
+-------------
+
+The following files should be included on the distribution disk:
+
+ README This file
+ PXLGEN.EXE Font Scaler
+ TFMGEN.EXE TFM adjustment utility
+ MAKEFONT.EXE Shell for above
+ MVSSBX10.IF3 Sans-Serif
+ MVTT10.IF3 Teletype
+ MVCLOI.IF3 Cloister
+ TFM.LIB TFM's for above
+
+Registration.
+-------------
+
+If you are using PXLgen we suggest you register your copy with MicroPress.
+This will enable you to obtain newest versions of the program as well as other
+fonts and programs available from us.
