To get around this, we must base \textsf{fontinst} constructions not on its \textsf{afm}, but instead, use what may be thought of as an anonymous metric file constructed from its \textsf{tfm} via +\begin{verbatim} +tftopl -charcode-format=octal rtxmi rtxmi +\end{verbatim} +so that {\tt rtxmi.pl} identifies slots only by octal codes, not names, and identifies the encoding as \textsf{FONTSPECIFIC}, which usually means ``as specified in the header of {\tt rtxmi.pfb}.'') By including in the \textsf{fontinst} driver script a line +\begin{verbatim} +\declareencoding{FONTSPECIFIC}{oml} +\end{verbatim} +we force the slots in {\tt rtxmi} to be interpreted using the names in {\tt oml.etx} so that, at the end, we have no problems using {\tt oml} as the encoding for composite fonts built from {\tt rtxmi}. + + +The original version of \textsf{txfonts} made use of whatever Times font was installed in \TeX\ Live, and as a non-free font, it was not available for modification. In this updated version, we use instead the alphabetic glyphs from TeXGyreTermes or LinLibertine, each of which presents no licensing issues. This allows us to make optical sizes of the math italic and symbol fonts, with a boost to the appearance and readability of subscripts, sub-subscripts and superscripts. (Unfortunately the STIX math italic letters are much heavier than Times, by nearly 15\% in stem thickness of uppercase letters, and do not make a good substitute.) +\section{Converting Libertine} +Making Libertine text italic and Greek glyphs into math italic and Greek glyphs requires some preparation. The regular 10{\tt pt} size is no problem---there is a tfm in the \TeX Live ditribution named {\tt fxlri-8r.tfm} which provides the font in {\tt 8r} encoding, which of course includes all the Roman letters. To get an equivalent for 7{\tt pt} and 5{\tt pt} requires us to open the original {\tt fxlri.{pfb,afm}} in FontForge and subject them to the two stages of thickening and extending described above. The result should be +\begin{verbatim} +fxlri-7letters.{pfb,afm} +fxlri-5letters.{pfb,afm} +fxlzi-7letters.{pfb,afm} +fxlzi-5letters.{pfb,afm} +\end{verbatim} +from which we produce four corresponding tfm files using, eg, +\begin{verbatim} +afm2tfm fxlri-7letters +\end{verbatim} +which must be referenced in the {\tt libertinealt.map} file with four lines like +\begin{verbatim} +fxlri-7letters LinLibertineI7 <fxlri-7letters.pfb +\end{verbatim} +The same fonts are now used with a different encoding to tease out Greek letters and some other unencoded glyphs like alternate versions of J, g, v and y. Note that these are not available in the semibold font---we have to resort to other tricks for that. First, run four commands similar to +\begin{verbatim} +afm2tfm fxlri-7letters -T libertinealt.enc -v fxlri-7alt fxlri-7alt +\end{verbatim} + +\subsection{Making bold J and bold v} +These glyphs are missing in \textsf{fxlzi.pfb}, the semibold Linux Libertine that matched bold TX better than bold Linux Libertine, which seems to be a quite different font, more like bold Palatino. So, we take the Jcircumflex glyph and remove the circumflex to make a J and take the v.alt glyph from \textsf{fxlri} and embolden it by 40{\tt em} to make a bold version of the math italic v. From this next font \textsf{fxlzi-jv.pfb} with just two glyphs, we make a tfm with +\begin{verbatim} +afm2tfm fxlzi-jv +\end{verbatim} +which makes {\tt fxlzi-jv.tfm}, a reference to which we must add to a {\tt .map} file with +\begin{verbatim} +fxlzi-jv fxlzi-Jv <fxlzi-jv.pfb +\end{verbatim} +assuming of course that in the course of making your font, you had given the internal name also as {\tt fxlzi-Jv}. Finally, we have to make versions that work as 7{\tt pt} and 5{\tt pt} fonts using the same methods as described above, resulting in \verb|fxlzi-jz{5,7}.{pfb,afm,tfm}| for our later use. For each {\tt afm}, male a {\tt tfm} using lines like +\begin{verbatim} +afm2tfm fxlzi-jv +\end{verbatim} +and then, for each {\tt.tfm}, make a {\tt .pl} with +\begin{verbatim} +tftopl fxlzi-jv fxlzi-jv +\end{verbatim} +and so on. +\subsection{Making -alt fonts} In a number of cases, we want to substitute (virtually) Greek glyphs from Libertine into a math italic (or mia) font. As the Greek glyphs are not encoded, we proceed as follows: +\begin{verbatim} +afm2tfm fxlri -T libertinealt.enc -v fxlri-alt rfxlri-alt +\end{verbatim} +which creates {\tt rfxlri-alt.tfm} and {\tt fxlri-alt.vpl} containing the Greek glyphs in the order they should be for \TeX, and which outputs, for the map file, the line +\begin{verbatim} +rfxlri-alt LinLibertineI " LibertineAltEncoding ReEncodeFont " <libertinealt.enc +\end{verbatim} +and then +\begin{verbatim} +tftopl rfxlri-alt rfxlri-alt +\end{verbatim} +makes {\tt rfxlri-alt.pl}, from which \textsf{fontinst} may construct {\tt rfxlri-alt.mtx}. The other {\tt -alt} versions were constructed in a similar manner. + +\section{Files in the distribution} +This list is current as of May 24, 2012.
