-Hi there - Stayka is here! 1993/05/03
-
-My apologies for sending this stuff again, but I was told by a friend
-who successfully built the Klingon alphabet for LaTeX yesterday (as far
-as I know he will post it to the net as soon as it's completely ready -
-there are some minor adjustments to make...) how I could solve the
-problem with the missing blank space in the font. Furthermore I
-corrected the spacing between the letters, they should look better now.
-Unfortunately at the moment I have no tool to make a shar archive of the
-files, but I hope you will forgive me...
-
-BTW, I compiled the runes with the following command. As example I use
-the 10pt version of the Futhark font for hp-Laser-/Deskjet (300dpi).
-I run Metafont under SCO-Unix, but I'd say it shouldn't be too different
-to use the DOS/Mac/Amiga/Atari/??? versions of Metafont.
-
-mf "\mode:= CanonCX;" "\mag:= 1;" \input futhol10
-
-This will build the gf-file. To get the pk-file you have to invoke the
-program gftopk, and afterwards copy tfm and pk files into the
-directories where they belong.
-
-And now again here's the Metafont source for the Older Futhark alphabet
-with corrected spacing between the letters. They are as good as Shavana
-and I managed to design them. I include the parameter files and the
-files to compile 10pt, 20pt, 30pt, 40pt and 50pt runes, which should
-cover almost every case.
-
-This font should be used with LaTeX and the old font selection scheme,
-as I haven't created a font family and so on for it yet. Who wants to
-use AmS-LaTeX or the new font selection scheme has to put a little more
-work in it.
-
-I didn't encounter any problems compiling this font with Metafont (with
-plain bases, not the computer modern ones), and I hope you don't either.
-Enjoy!
-
-
-Walk in the Light!
