-For renaming the .pfb and .afm files that come with Corel software, a half
-automatic tool is work in progress. You can try the first version by
-putting the files translate-font.pl and transtabl into one writable
-directory in your PATH. Modify the first line of translate-font.pl to match
-the location of your Perl interpreter. At first startup you will be
-asked for a mountpoint for the CD, enter /cdrom/ or f:\ or the like.
-This will be checkpointed in a file called mountpoint. Remove this
-file in order to use another mount point. Call translate-font.pl in
-either one of the following two ways:
-
- translate-font.pl PATTERN
-
-this will scan the font directories for all fonts that match the PATTERN
-and output their names (if extractable from the .pfb file). PATTERN
-must begin with a letter in [a-z] and may contain wildcards, thus
-'amri*' will output the names of the amerigo fonts. Take care to hide
-the wildcards from prior shell expansion by using single quotes of
-backslashification.
-
- translate-font.pl PATTERN pfb or
- translate-font.pl PATTERN afm
-
-this will copy any matching font to the current directory, provided
-their names are already known in »transtabl«. This file consists of
-lines that list the original font name followed by white space
-followed by the tex font name (without suffixes). I hope, the names do
-not differ from one Corel version to the other.
-
-You will find the correct tex font name in Karl Berry's fontname files
-(CTAN:doc/fontname/). They might not in any case match the names in the
-.map files in this distribution, however.
-
-This tool is not expected to work under DOS at the moment, not even if
-you have the head, tail and strings programs installed. This will change
-only by your aid.
-
-Please send me any font translation rules you have added, hints about
-bugs and errors to Karsten Tinnefeld <karsten@tinnefeld.com>.
-
-Please note that corelpak-contrib does not, will not and never has included
-any third hand copyrighted material, be it names, strokes, measurements or
-whatever.
