+ e.g., .../texmf-var/fonts/afm/public/archaic/*.afm
+ .../texmf-var/fonts/type1/public/archaic/*.pfb
+ .../texmf-var/fonts/tfm/public/archaic/*.tfm
+o Add the *.map information to the dvips/pdftex font maps
+o Refresh the database
+ (for more information on the above see the FAQ).
+
+o run: (pdf)latex tryphnc for a test of the font
+
+ To generate a second copy of the manual (which is already supplied as a PDF file):
+o run: latex phoenician.dtx
+o (for an index run: makeindex -s gind.ist *.idx)
