A virtual font and the local fonts can use +any combination of these ofm levels. + +For the moment VF/OVF files read by ovf2ovp must have the extension '.ovf', +allowing '.vf' as alternative requires a modification of the Kpathsea +library that will not be present in TL2009. + +Note, however, that all this is still somewhat preliminary. In particular +the programs still lack the thorough checking of all input data done in +TFtoPL&Co and required to diagnose problems with faulty binary files. + |
