.SH "DESCRIPTION"
The file \fBupdmap.cfg\fR is the central font configuration file of a
teTeX system and is read by \fBupdmap\fP(1). It describes if and how
-fonts should be included (or not included) into PS/PDF output. This
-works for outline (PostScript Type1) and bitmap (PostScript
-Type3, mostly coming from MetaFont) fonts.
