-<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label tfm</title>
-</head><body>
-<h3>What are TFM files?</h3>
-<p/>TFM stands for TeX Font Metrics; TFM files hold
-information about the sizes of the characters of the font in question,
-and about ligatures and kerns within that font. One TFM file is
-needed for each font used by TeX, that is for each design (point)
-size for each weight for each family; each TFM file serves for all
-magnifications of &#8216;its&#8217; font, so that there are (typically) fewer
-TFM files than there are PK files. TeX (LaTeX, etc.)
-itself needs only to know about the sizes of characters and their
-interactions with each other, but not what characters look like. By
-contrast, TFM files are not, in principle, needed by the
-DVI driver, which only needs to know about the glyphs that each
-character selects, so as to print or display them.
