fontimport

fontimport(1)							       teTeX							     fontimport(1)

NAME

       fontimport - import fonts into the teTeX directory structure

SYNOPSIS

       fontimport [-d] [-f] [-t] [-m MF-mode] path ...

DESCRIPTION

       fontimport  imports TFM and PK font files into appropriate places in the teTeX directory tree and revises teTeX's filename database accord-
       ingly.

       Each path may be a font file or a directory, either absolute or relative to the current directory.  All subdirectories of a given directory
       are  searched  for  font  files.  Don't specify directory names that are symbolic links, however, since (at least some versions of) find(1)
       won't dereference them.

       A font's destination is determined by variables in the file texmf.cnf.  By default, fontimport will issue a warning to  stderr  instead	of
       overwriting an existing font file.  The -f flag forces overwriting.

       fontimport  can	cope  with  font  names  conforming  the 8.3-namescheme, too, so you can import fonts from either a TDS-compliant or MSDOS
       installation. emTeX's font libraries are not supported. If you want to import fonts from a font library, you need to unpack it with emTeX's
       fontlib utility first.

       The  full pathname of each font successfully imported is echoed to stdout.  When fontimport can not parse a font's name, it will import the
       font using a path element of "/unknown/" and issue a warning on stderr.

       fontimport tries to guess the mode of PK files.	With the -m flag you may specify a fallback mode to be used if the mode can't be guessed.

       Options:

       -m MF-MODE
	      default Metafont mode for PK files if autodetection fails
       -d delete
	      delete font files after copying (i.e., move them)
       -f force
	      overwrite existing fonts
       -t test
	      just echo each font's destination (if any); don't move or copy
