+
+Description:
+This package implements PFB font which is accessible normally by Sauter
+extrapolation only as bitmap font. The cmexb10.tfm is exactly the output of
+METAFONT using Sauter extrapolation. The cmexb10.pdf is generated using
+mftrace. This small package is a part of CSTeX.
+
+Notes: CSplain includes ams-math.tex macro where cmexb10 font is used for
+bold version of math typesetting. If cmexb package is not installed then
+usage of ams-math.tex and \boldmath yields to auto-generating metric file
+and bitmap font (Type3) using METAFONT and Sauter extrapolation but all
+another fonts are typically outlined. This is strange. If cmexb package is
+installed then all math fonts used by ams-math.tex macro file are in Type1
+format (outlined).
+
+Installation:
+Put cmexb10.tfm to tfm tree, cmexb10.pfb to type1 tree of your TeX
+distribution. Then ensure that the map line
+
+cmexb10 CMEXB10 <cmexb10.pfb
+
+is added to all .map files used in your distribution (using updmap-sys or
+something similar).
