.SH "NAME"
autoinst \- wrapper around the LCDF TypeTools,
for installing and using OpenType fonts in (La)TeX.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\fBautoinst\fR [\fIoptions\fR] \fBfontfile(s)\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Eddie Kohler's \fI\s-1LCDF\s0 TypeTools\fR are superb tools for installing 
OpenType fonts in LaTeX, but they can be hard to use: 
they need many, often long, command lines 
and don't generate the \fIfd\fR and \fIsty\fR files LaTeX needs.
\&\fBautoinst\fR simplifies the use of the \fITypeTools\fR for font installation
by generating and executing all commands for \fIotftotfm\fR
and by creating and installing all necessary \fIfd\fR and \fIsty\fR files.
.PP
Given a family of font files (in \fIotf\fR or \fIttf\fR format),
\&\fBautoinst\fR will create several LaTeX font families:
.RS 2
.IP "\-" 3
Four text families (with lining and oldstyle digits, each in both tabular
and proportional variants), all with the following shapes:
.RS 3
.RS 2
.IP "\fIn\fR" 8
.IX Item "n"
Roman (i.e., upright) text
.IP "\fIit\fR, \fIsl\fR" 8
.IX Item "it, sl"
Italic and slanted (sometimes called oblique) text
.IP "\fIsc\fR" 8
.IX Item "sc"
Small caps
.IP "\fIsw\fR" 8
.IX Item "sw"
Swash
.IP "\fItl\fR" 8
.IX Item "tl"
Titling shape. Meant for all-caps text; letterspacing and the positioning of 
punctuation characters have been adjusted to suit all-caps text.
(This shape is only generated for the families with lining digits, 
since old-style digits make no sense with all-caps text.)
.IP "\fIscit\fR, \fIscsl\fR" 8
.IX Item "scit, scsl"
Italic and slanted small caps
.IP "\fInw\fR" 8
.IX Item "nw"
\&\*(L"Upright swash\*(R"; usually roman text with a few \*(L"oldstyle\*(R" ligatures 
like ct, sp and st.
.IP "\fItlit\fR, \fItlsl\fR" 8
.IX Item "tlit, tlsl"
Italic and slanted titling text
.RE
.RS 2
.RE
.RE
.RS 3
.RE
.IP "\-" 3
For each T1\-encoded text family: a family of TS1\-encoded symbol fonts,
in roman, italic and slanted shapes.
.IP "\-" 3
Families with superiors, inferiors, numerators and denominators,
in roman, italic and slanted shapes.
.IP "\-" 3
An ornament family, also in roman, italic and slanted shapes.
.RE
.RS 2
.RE
.PP
Of course, if your fonts don't contain italics, oldstyle digits, small caps 
etc., the corresponding shapes and families are not created.
In addition, the creation of most families and shapes can be controlled 
by the user (see \*(L"COMMAND-LINE \s-1OPTIONS\*(R"\s0 below).
.PP
These families use the \fIFontPro\fR project's naming scheme: 
\&\fI<FontFamily>\-<Suffix>\fR, where \fI<Suffix>\fR is:
.IP "\fI\s-1LF\s0\fR" 8
.IX Item "LF"
proportional (i.e., figures have varying widths) lining figures
.IP "\fI\s-1TLF\s0\fR" 8
.IX Item "TLF"
tabular (i.e., all figures have the same width) lining figures
.IP "\fIOsF\fR" 8
.IX Item "OsF"
proportional oldstyle figures
.IP "\fITOsF\fR" 8
.IX Item "TOsF"
tabular oldstyle figures
.IP "\fISup\fR" 8
.IX Item "Sup"
superior characters (note that most fonts have only an incomplete set of 
superior characters: digits, some punctuation and the letters \fIabdeilmnorst\fR;
normal forms are used for other characters)
.IP "\fIInf\fR" 8
.IX Item "Inf"
inferior characters; usually only digits and some punctuation,
normal forms for other characters
.IP "\fIOrn\fR" 8
.IX Item "Orn"
ornaments
.IP "\fINumr\fR" 8
.IX Item "Numr"
numerators
.IP "\fIDnom\fR" 8
.IX Item "Dnom"
denominators
.PP
The individual fonts are named \fI<FontName>\-<suffix>\-<shape>\-<enc>\fR,
where \fI<suffix>\fR is the same as above (but in lowercase),
\&\fI<shape>\fR is either empty, \*(L"sc\*(R", \*(L"swash\*(R" or \*(L"titling\*(R",
and \fI<enc>\fR is the encoding (also in lowercase).
A typical name in this scheme would be \*(L"FiraSans\-Light\-osf\-sc\-ly1\*(R".
.SS "On the choice of text encoding"
.IX Subsection "On the choice of text encoding"
By default, \fBautoinst\fR generates text fonts with \s-1OT1, T1\s0 and \s-1LY1\s0
encodings, and the generated style files use \s-1LY1\s0 as the default text encoding.
\&\s-1LY1\s0 has been chosen over T1 because it has some empty slots to accommodate
the additional ligatures found in many OpenType fonts.
Other encodings can be chosen using the \fI\-encoding\fR option 
(see \*(L"COMMAND-LINE \s-1OPTIONS\*(R"\s0 below).
.SS "Using the fonts in your LaTeX documents"
.IX Subsection "Using the fonts in your LaTeX documents"
\&\fBautoinst\fR generates a style file for using the fonts in LaTeX documents,
named \fI<FontFamily>.sty\fR. This style file also takes care of loading the
\&\fIfontenc\fR and \fItextcomp\fR packages.
To use the fonts, add the command \f(CW\*(C`\eusepackage{\f(CI<FontFamily>\f(CW}\*(C'\fR
to the preamble of your document.
.PP
This style file defines a number of options:
.ie n .IP """lining"", ""oldstyle"", ""tabular"", ""proportional""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CWlining\fR, \f(CWoldstyle\fR, \f(CWtabular\fR, \f(CWproportional\fR" 4
.IX Item "lining, oldstyle, tabular, proportional"
Choose which figure style to use. 
The defaults are \*(L"oldstyle\*(R" and \*(L"proportional\*(R" (if available).
.ie n .IP """scale=\fI<number>\fP""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CWscale=\f(CI<number>\f(CW\fR" 4
.IX Item "scale=<number>"
Scale the font by a factor of \fI<number>\fR.
E.g., to increase the size of the font by 5%, use 
\&\f(CW\*(C`\eusepackage[scale=1.05]{\f(CI<FontFamily>\f(CW}\*(C'\fR. 
May also be spelled \f(CW\*(C`scaled\*(C'\fR.
.Sp
This option is only available when you have the \fIxkeyval\fR package installed.
.ie n .IP """light"", ""medium"", ""book"", ""text"", ""regular""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CWlight\fR, \f(CWmedium\fR, \f(CWbook\fR, \f(CWtext\fR, \f(CWregular\fR" 4
.IX Item "light, medium, book, text, regular"
Select the weight that LaTeX will use as the \*(L"regular\*(R" weight; 
the default is \f(CW\*(C`regular\*(C'\fR.
.ie n .IP """heavy"", ""ultrablack"", ""extrablack"", ""black"", ""ultrabold"", ""extrabold"", ""demibold"", ""semibold"", ""bold""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CWheavy\fR, \f(CWultrablack\fR, \f(CWextrablack\fR, \f(CWblack\fR, \f(CWultrabold\fR, \f(CWextrabold\fR, \f(CWdemibold\fR, \f(CWsemibold\fR, \f(CWbold\fR" 4
.IX Item "heavy, ultrablack, extrablack, black, ultrabold, extrabold, demibold, semibold, bold"
Select the weight that LaTeX will use as the \*(L"bold\*(R" weight; 
the default is \f(CW\*(C`bold\*(C'\fR.
.PP
The previous two groups of options will only work if
you have the \fImweights\fR package installed.
.PP
The style file will also try to load the \fIfontaxes\fR package 
(available on \s-1CTAN\s0), which gives easy access to various font shapes and styles.
Using the machinery set up by \fIfontaxes\fR, the generated style file 
defines a number of commands (which take the text to be typeset as argument)
and declarations (which don't take arguments, but affect all text up to
the end of the current group) to access titling, superior and inferior 
characters:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    DECLARATION     COMMAND         SHORT FORM OF COMMAND
\&
\&    \etlshape        \etexttitling    \etexttl
\&    \esufigures      \etextsuperior   \etextsu
\&    \einfigures      \etextinferior   \etextin
.Ve
.PP
In addition, the \f(CW\*(C`\eswshape\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`\etextsw\*(C'\fR commands are redefined to place
swash on \fIfontaxes\fR' secondary shape axis (\fIfontaxes\fR places it on the primary
shape axis) to make them behave properly when nested, so that
\&\f(CW\*(C`\eswshape\eupshape\*(C'\fR will give upright swash.
.PP
There are no commands for accessing the numerator and denominator
fonts; these can be selected using \fIfontaxes\fR' standard commands,
e.g., \f(CW\*(C`\efontfigurestyle{numerator}\eselectfont\*(C'\fR.
.PP
The style file also provides a command \f(CW\*(C`\eornament{\f(CI<number>\f(CW}\*(C'\fR,
where \f(CW\*(C`\f(CI<number>\f(CW\*(C'\fR is a number from 0 to the total number of
ornaments minus one. Ornaments are always typeset using the current family,
series and shape. A list of all ornaments in a font can be created by
running LaTeX on the file \fInfssfont.tex\fR (part of a standard
LaTeX installation) and supplying the name of the ornament font.
.PP
To access ornament glyphs, \fBautoinst\fR creates a font-specific encoding file
\&\fI<FontFamily>_orn.enc\fR, 
but only if that file doesn't yet exist in the current directory.
This is a deliberate feature that allows you to provide your own
encoding vector, e.g. if your fonts use non-standard glyph names for ornaments.
.PP
These commands are only generated for existing shapes and number styles;
no commands are generated for shapes and styles that don't exist, 
or whose generation was turned off by the user.
Also these commands are built on top of \fIfontaxes\fR, so if that package 
cannot be found, you're limited to using the lower-level commands from 
standard \s-1NFSS\s0 (\f(CW\*(C`\efontfamily\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\efontseries\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\efontshape\*(C'\fR etc.).
.SS "\s-1NFSS\s0 codes"
.IX Subsection "NFSS codes"
\&\s-1NFSS\s0 identifies fonts by a combination of family, series 
(the concatenation of weight and width), shape and size.
\&\fBautoinst\fR parses the output of \f(CW\*(C`otfinfo \-\-info\*(C'\fR to determine
these parameters. When this fails
(e.g., because the font family contains uncommon widths or weights),
\&\fBautoinst\fR ends up with different fonts having the \fIsame\fR values
for these font parameters, and so cannot be used in \s-1NFSS.\s0
In that case, \fBautoinst\fR will split the font family into multiple subfamilies
(based on each font file's \*(L"Subfamily\*(R" value) and try again.
(Since many font vendors misunderstand the \*(L"Subfamily\*(R" concept
and make each font file its own separate subfamily,
this strategy is only used as a last resort.)
.PP
If a proliferation of font families is unwanted, either run \fBautoinst\fR 
on a smaller set of fonts or add the missing widths, weights and shapes to 
the tables \f(CW%FD_WIDTH\fR, \f(CW%FD_WEIGHT\fR and \f(CW%FD_SHAPE\fR, at the beginning 
of the source code. Please also send a bug report (see \s-1AUTHOR\s0 below).
.PP
\&\fBautoinst\fR maps widths, weights and shapes to \s-1NFSS\s0 codes using
the following tables. These are based on the standard \fIFontname\fR scheme 
and Philipp Lehman's \fIFont Installation Guide\fR, but some changes had to be made 
to avoid name clashes in font families with many widths and weights,
such as Helvetica Neue and Fira Sans.

When \fIboth\fR weight and width are empty, the \s-1NFSS\s0 \*(L"series\*(R" attribute becomes \*(L"m\*(R".

.IX Item "[2]"
Until release 2017\-06\-16, \*(L"Text\*(R" and \*(L"Book\*(R" were treated as synonyms for
\&\*(L"Regular\*(R". As there are some fonts (\s-1IBM\s0 Plex, Fira Sans) that contain
separate \*(L"Text\*(R" or \*(L"Book\*(R" in addition to \*(L"Regular\*(R" weights,
I decided to give them their own codes.
When there is no \*(L"Regular\*(R" weight, \fBautoinst\fR will generate \fIssub\fR rules 
to substitute either the \*(L"Text\*(R" or the \*(L"Book\*(R" font in its place.

Adobe Silentium Pro contains two roman shapes;
\&\*(L"Roman I\*(R" is mapped to \*(L"n\*(R", \*(L"Roman \s-1II\*(R"\s0 to \*(L"it\*(R".
.SS "A note for MiKTeX users"
.IX Subsection "A note for MiKTeX users"
Automatically installing the fonts into a suitable \s-1TEXMF\s0 tree
(as \fBautoinst\fR tries to do by default) requires a TeX-installation that uses
the \fIkpathsea\fR library; with TeX distributions that implement their
own directory searching (such as MiKTeX), \fBautoinst\fR will complain that
it cannot find the \fIkpsewhich\fR program and install all generated files
into subdirectories of the current directory.
If you use such a TeX distribution, you should either move these files
to their correct destinations by hand, or use the \fI\-target\fR option
(see \*(L"COMMAND-LINE \s-1OPTIONS\*(R"\s0 below) to specify a \s-1TEXMF\s0 tree.
.PP
Also, some OpenType fonts may lead to \fIpl\fR and \fIvpl\fR files that
are too big for MiKTeX's \fIpltotf\fR and \fIvptovf\fR;
the versions that come with W32TeX (\fIhttp://www.w32tex.org\fR)
and TeXLive (\fIhttp://tug.org/texlive\fR) don't seem to have this problem.
.SH "COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS"

\&\fBautoinst\fR tries hard to do The Right Thing (\s-1TM\s0) by default, 
so you usually won't really need these options;
but most aspects of its operation can be fine-tuned if you want to.
.PP
You may use either one or two dashes before options,
and option names may be shortened to a unique prefix
(e.g., \fB\-encoding\fR may be abbreviated to \fB\-enc\fR or even \fB\-en\fR,
but \fB\-e\fR is ambiguous (it may mean either \fB\-encoding\fR or \fB\-extra\fR)).
.IP "\fB\-dryrun\fR" 4

Generate the specified encoding(s) for the text fonts. The default is 
\&\*(L"\s-1OT1,T1,LY1\*(R".\s0
For each encoding, a file \fI<encoding>.enc\fR (in all \fIlowercase\fR!)
should be somewhere where \fIotftotfm\fR can find it. Suitable encoding files
for \s-1OT1, T1/TS1\s0 and \s-1LY1\s0 come with \fBautoinst\fR. (These files are
called \fIfontools_ot1.enc\fR etc. to avoid name clashes with other packages;
the \*(L"fontools_\*(R" prefix may be omitted.)

Multiple text encodings can be specified as a comma-separated list:
\&\f(CW\*(C`\-encoding=OT1,T1\*(C'\fR (without spaces!). The generated style file passes these encodings 
to \fIfontenc\fR in the specified order, so the last one will become 
the default text encoding for your documents.
.IP "\fB\-ts1\fR / \fB\-nots1\fR" 4
.IX Item "-ts1 / -nots1"
Control the creation of TS1\-encoded fonts. The default is \fB\-ts1\fR
if the text encodings (see \fI\-encoding\fR above) include T1,
\&\fB\-nots1\fR otherwise.
.IP "\fB\-sanserif\fR" 4
.IX Item "-sanserif"
Install the font as a sanserif font, accessed via \f(CW\*(C`\esffamily\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`\etextsf\*(C'\fR.
The generated style file redefines \f(CW\*(C`\efamilydefault\*(C'\fR,
so including it will still make this font the default text font.
.IP "\fB\-typewriter\fR" 4
.IX Item "-typewriter"
Install the font as a typewriter font, accessed via \f(CW\*(C`\ettfamily\*(C'\fR and
\&\f(CW\*(C`\etexttt\*(C'\fR.
The generated style file redefines \f(CW\*(C`\efamilydefault\*(C'\fR,
so including it will still make this font the default text font.
.IP "\fB\-lining\fR / \fB\-nolining\fR" 4
.IX Item "-lining / -nolining"
Control the creation of fonts with lining figures. The default is
\&\fB\-lining\fR.
.IP "\fB\-oldstyle\fR / \fB\-nooldstyle\fR" 4
.IX Item "-oldstyle / -nooldstyle"
Control the creation of fonts with oldstyle figures. The default is
\&\fB\-oldstyle\fR.
.IP "\fB\-proportional\fR / \fB\-noproportional\fR" 4
.IX Item "-proportional / -noproportional"
Control the creation of fonts with proportional figures. The default is
\&\fB\-proportional\fR.
.IP "\fB\-tabular\fR / \fB\-notabular\fR" 4
.IX Item "-tabular / -notabular"
Control the creation of fonts with tabular figures. The default is
\&\fB\-tabular\fR.
.IP "\fB\-smallcaps\fR / \fB\-nosmallcaps\fR" 4
.IX Item "-smallcaps / -nosmallcaps"
Control the creation of small caps fonts. The default is
\&\fB\-smallcaps\fR.
.IP "\fB\-swash\fR / \fB\-noswash\fR" 4
.IX Item "-swash / -noswash"
Control the creation of swash fonts. The default is \fB\-swash\fR.
.IP "\fB\-titling\fR / \fB\-notitling\fR" 4
.IX Item "-titling / -notitling"
Control the creation of titling fonts. The default is \fB\-titling\fR.
.IP "\fB\-superiors\fR / \fB\-nosuperiors\fR" 4
.IX Item "-superiors / -nosuperiors"
Control the creation of fonts with superior characters.
The default is \fB\-superiors\fR.
.IP "\fB\-inferiors\fR=[ \fBsinf\fR | \fBsubs\fR | \fBdnom\fR ]" 4
.IX Item "-inferiors=[ sinf | subs | dnom ]"
The OpenType standard defines several kinds of digits that might be used 
as inferiors or subscripts: \*(L"Scientific Inferiors\*(R" 
(OpenType feature \*(L"sinf\*(R"), \*(L"Subscripts\*(R" (\*(L"subs\*(R") and \*(L"Denominators\*(R" (\*(L"dnom\*(R").
This option allows the user to determine which of these styles \fBautoinst\fR
should use for the inferior characters. The default is not to create fonts 
with inferior characters.
.Sp
\&\fINote that many fonts contain only one (or even none) of these types
of inferior characters. If you specify a style of inferiors that isn't
actually present in the font, \f(BIautoinst\fI silently falls back to its default
of not creating fonts with inferiors; it doesn't try to substitute one of
the other features.\fR
.IP "\fB\-fractions\fR / \fB\-nofractions\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fractions / -nofractions"
Control the creation of fonts with numerators and denominators.
The default is \fB\-nofractions\fR.
.IP "\fB\-ornaments\fR / \fB\-noornaments\fR" 4
.IX Item "-ornaments / -noornaments"
Control the creation of ornament fonts. The default is \fB\-ornaments\fR.
.IP "\fB\-defaultlining\fR / \fB\-defaultoldstyle\fR" 4
.IX Item "-defaultlining / -defaultoldstyle"
.PD 0
.IP "\fB\-defaulttabular\fR / \fB\-defaultproportional\fR" 4
.IX Item "-defaulttabular / -defaultproportional"
.PD
Tell \fBautoinst\fR which figure style is the current font family's default
(i.e., which figures you get when you don't specify any OpenType features).
.Sp
\&\fIDon't use these options unless you are certain you need them!\fR
They are only needed for fonts that don't provide OpenType features 
for their default figure style; and even in that case, 
\&\fBautoinst\fR's default values (\fB\-defaultlining\fR and \fB\-defaulttabular\fR) 
are usually correct.
.IP "\fB\-nofigurekern\fR" 4
.IX Item "-nofigurekern"
Some fonts provide kerning pairs for tabular figures.
This is very probably not what you want 
(e.g., numbers in tables won't line up exactly).
This option adds extra \fI \-\-ligkern\fR options
to the commands for \fIotftotfm\fR to suppress such kerns. 
Note that this option leads to very long commands (it adds
one hundred \fI \-\-ligkern\fR options), which may cause problems on some systems.
.IP "\fB\-mergewidths\fR / \fB\-nomergewidths\fR" 4
.IX Item "-mergewidths / -nomergewidths"
Some font families put Condensed and Extended fonts in separate families;
this option tells \fBautoinst\fR to merge those separate families into the \*(L"main\*(R" font family. 
The default is \fB\-nomergewidths\fR.
.IP "\fB\-extra\fR=\fItext\fR" 4
.IX Item "-extra=text"
Append \fItext\fR as extra options to the command lines for \fIotftotfm\fR. 
To prevent \fItext\fR from accidentily being interpreted as options to \fBautoinst\fR, 
it should be properly quoted.
.IP "\fB\-manual\fR" 4
.IX Item "-manual"
Manual mode. By default, \fBautoinst\fR immediately executes all \fIotftotfm\fR
commands it generates; with the \fB\-manual\fR option, these commands are
instead written to a file \fIautoinst.bat\fR.
Furthermore it adds the \fI \-\-pl\fR option
(which tells \fIotftotfm\fR to generate human readable/editable \fIpl\fR 
and \fIvpl\fR files instead of the default \fItfm\fR and \fIvf\fR files)
and omits the \fI \-\-automatic\fR option (which causes \fIotftotfm\fR to
leave all generated files in the current directory, rather than install
them into your \s-1TEXMF\s0 tree). Manual mode is meant to enable tweaking 
the generated commands and post-processing the generated files.
.Sp
When using this option, run \fIpltotf\fR and \fIvptovf\fR after executing 
the commands (to convert the \fIpl\fR and \fIvf\fR files to \fItfm\fR and \fIvf\fR format)
and move all generated files to their proper destinations.
.PP
All following options are only meaningful in automatic mode,
and hence ignored in manual mode:
.IP "\fB\-target\fR=\fI\s-1DIRECTORY\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "-target=DIRECTORY"
Install all generated files into the \s-1TEXMF\s0 tree at \fI\s-1DIRECTORY\s0\fR.
This option allows the user to override \fBautoinst\fR's default behaviour, 
which is to search the \f(CW$TEXMFLOCAL\fR and \f(CW$TEXMFHOME\fR paths and install all files 
into subdirectories of the first writable \s-1TEXMF\s0 tree it finds 
(or into subdirectories of the current directory,
if no writable directory is found).
.IP "\fB\-vendor\fR=\fI\s-1VENDOR\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "-vendor=VENDOR"
.PD 0
.IP "\fB\-typeface\fR=\fI\s-1TYPEFACE\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "-typeface=TYPEFACE"
.PD
These options are equivalent to \fIotftotfm\fR's \fI \-\-vendor\fR and \fI \-\-typeface\fR
options: they change the \*(L"vendor\*(R" and \*(L"typeface\*(R" parts of the names of the
subdirectories in the \s-1TEXMF\s0 tree where generated files will be stored.
The default values are \*(L"lcdftools\*(R" and the font's FontFamily name.
.Sp
Note that these options change \fIonly\fR directory names,
not the names of any generated files.
.IP "\fB\-updmap\fR / \fB\-noupdmap\fR" 4
.IX Item "-updmap / -noupdmap"
Control whether or not \fIupdmap\fR is called after the last call to \fIotftotfm\fR.
The default is \fB\-updmap\fR.
