NAME
mktextfm - create a TFM file for a font
SYNOPSIS
mktextfm [options] font
DESCRIPTION
This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete
documentation for this version of TeX can be found in the info file or
manual Kpathsea: A library for path searching.
mktextfm is used to generate a tfm file from the Metafont source files
for font, if possible. If destdir is given, the generated file will be
installed there, otherwise a (rather complicated) heuristic is used.
The name of the generated file is printed on standard output.
mktextfm is typically called by other programs, rather than from the
command line.
OPTIONS
mktextfm accepts the following options:
--destdir dir
A directory name. If the directory is absolute, it is used as-
is. Otherwise, it is appended to the root destination directory
set in the script.
--help Print help message and exit.
--version
Print version information and exit.
