-LCDF Typetools
-==============
-
-LCDF Typetools comprises several programs for manipulating PostScript
-Type 1, Type 1 Multiple Master, OpenType, and TrueType fonts.
-
-**cfftot1** translates a Compact Font Format (CFF) font, or a
-PostScript-flavored OpenType font, into PostScript Type 1 format. It
-correctly handles subroutines and hints.
-
-**mmafm** creates an AFM file (font metrics) corresponding to an instance of
-a Type 1 Multiple Master font. It reads the AMFM and AFM files distributed
-with the font.
-
-**mmpfb** creates a normal, single-master font program which looks like an
-instance of a Type 1 Multiple Master font. It reads the multiple master font
-program in PFA or PFB format.
-
-**otfinfo** reports information about OpenType and TrueType fonts, such as
-the OpenType features and Unicode code points they support, or the contents
-of their `size` optical size features.
-
-**otftotfm** creates TeX font metrics and encodings that correspond to an
-OpenType or TrueType font. It interprets glyph positionings, substitutions,
-and ligatures as far as it is able. You can say which OpenType features
-should be activated.
-
-**t1dotlessj** reads a Type 1 font, then creates a new Type 1 font whose
-only character is a dotless lower-case j matching the input font’s design.
-
-**t1lint** checks Type 1 fonts for correctness. It tests most of the
-requirements listed in Adobe Systems’ Black Book (“Adobe Type 1 Font
-Format”), and some others.
-
-**t1rawafm** creates an AFM font metrics file corresponding to a raw Type 1
-font file (in PFA or PFB format).
-
-**t1reencode** reencodes a Type 1 font, replacing its internal encoding with
-one you specify.
-
-**t1testpage** creates PostScript test pages for a given Type 1 font. These
-pages show every character defined in the font.
-
-**ttftotype42** creates a Type 42 wrapper for a TrueType or
-TrueType-flavored OpenType font. This allows the font to be embedded in a
-PostScript file.
-
-Each of these programs has a manual page; `man PROGRAMNAME/PROGRAMNAME.1`
-for more information.
-
-See `NEWS` in this directory for changes in recent versions. The LCDF
-Typetools home page is:

-
-Installation
-------------
-
-Type `./configure`, then `make`.
-
-If `./configure` does not exist (you downloaded from Github), run
-`./bootstrap.sh` first.
-
-`./configure` accepts the usual options; see `INSTALL` for details.
-Some of the typetools programs can link with additional libraries. Otftotfm
-can use the Kpathsea library for integration with TeX directories; if your
-version of this library is in a nonstandard place, supply `./configure` with
-the `--with-kpathsea=PREFIX` option to find it.
-
-You can also disable individual programs by supplying `./configure` with
-`--disable-PROGNAME` options. See `./configure --help` for more
-information.
-
-
-Mmafm and mmpfb
----------------
-
-Run `mmafm --help` and `mmpfb --help` for a full option summary. Here are
-two example runs:
-
- % mmafm MyriadMM.amfm --weight=300 --width=585 > MyriadMM_300_585_.afm
- % mmpfb MyriadMM.pfb --weight=300 --width=585 > MyriadMM_300_585_.pfb
-
-Mmafm expects the name of an AMFM file on the command line. It also needs
-an AFM file for each master (these should have been distributed with the
-AMFM file). You can give the AFM files’ names on the command line, along
-with the AMFM file, or you let mmafm find the AFM files automatically. For
-the automatic method, you must follow one of these 2 conventions:
-
-1. The AFM files are in the same directory as the AMFM file. They are
-named `FONTNAME.afm` -- `MyriadMM-LightCn.afm`, for example.
-
-2. There is a `PSres.upr` file that lists the AFMs by font name, and the
-`PSRESOURCEPATH` environment variable contains the directory with that
-`PSres.upr` file. (`ps2pk` comes with a sample `PSres.upr` file.)
