Description of the ps4mf-package + ------------------------------------ + + In order to use Postscript-Type1-fonts for TeX without any special + encoding scheme (like dc, ec, nfss) you now can convert your favourite + postscript-font to Metafont-readable files. + This postscript-font has to be encoded in the "AdobeStandardEncoding- + scheme". The output is a metafont-file in stardard-computer-modern + encoding like the cm-family. + + You also can get dc-encoding, just choose right conversion routine + (see below at chapter III.). + + This package is based on the ps2mf-package of the authors: + Marcel Dings (original idea of the ps2mf-package) and Erik-Jan Vens (new + ps2mf.exe 2.0). + + + [...] + + For more look into the package! + + [...] + + VI.
