To make the virtual font for +UTF-8 encoding, `clonevf.pl' from the CJK package was used to make a mapped +copy (to itself) of `mrjhw.tfm'. The VF file was converted to VPL, and the +entries modified to reflect a mapping from UTF-8 to SJIS. Then they were +added, along with a reference to the mapped font, to the VPL version of the +existing Wadalab `umrjff.vf'. Then new VF and TFM files were created from +`umrjff.vpl'. Note that `mrjhw.pfb' is simply a copy of `dgjhw.pfb'. + +This font package follows the TDS directory structure; the font family names +for DNP and Unicode font encodings are `mrj' and `umrj', respectively. Note +that you need the maru-1-8-20080306.tar.gz font bundle to access the level 3 +kanji. + +Please read the documentation file `contrib/wadalab/DNP.doc' of the CJK +package for further details on installation and usage; there you can also +find a proper font mapping file and font definition files for use with +LaTeX. + + +History +------- + + 2005-07-12 + First release. + + 2005-07-30 + Fix mrjkb where glyph names were off by 1. + + 2008-03-06 + Integrate Gernot Hassenpflug's dgjhw font for half-width katakana + (taken from the `hwkatakana' package on CTAN). + + Add a font map file. + +---End of README--- |
