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. + +Send all inquiries to: + + MicroPress Inc + 6830 Harrow Street + Forest Hills NY 11375 + USA + + Voice 718 575 1816 + Fax 718 575 8038 + diff --git a/systems/msdos/pxlgen/tfm.lib b/systems/msdos/pxlgen/tfm.lib Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000000..596016a020 --- /dev/null +++ b/systems/msdos/pxlgen/tfm.lib |
