mft

MFT(1)							      General Commands Manual							    MFT(1)

NAME

       mft - translate Metafont code to TeX code for prettyprinting

SYNOPSIS

       mft mf_file_name[.mf] [ [ -c ] or [ change_file_name[.ch] ] ] [ [ -s ] or [ style_file_name[.mft] ] ]

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
       Web2C: A TeX implementation.

       The mft program creates a TeX file from a Metafont program.  It takes appropriate care of typographic details like page layout and the  use
       of  indentation,  italics,  boldface, etc., as illustrated in the book Computer Modern Typefaces.  Special conventions in Metafont comments
       allow you to control things that would not otherwise come out right; section 1 of  the  MFT  source  program  in  the  Metafontware  report
       explains these rules.

       The  command  line  has	one  required file name and two optional file names.  The required one is a Metafont source file; there is also an
       optional change file (which works just as the change files to tangle(1) and weave(1) do) and an optional style file (which is prepended	to
       everything).

       A  file	name  that  doesn't contain a dot is always given an extension, either .mf (Metafont) or .ch (change) or .mft (style). If no style
       file is specified, the style file plain.mft is automatically used. The change_file_name is not searched for using any paths. The  .mf  file
       is  searched  for  using  the MFINPUTS environment variable if you have set it, or else the system default.  The style file is searched for
       using the TEXINPUTS environment variable.  See tex(1) for the details of the searching.

       The output TeX file name is formed by using .tex in place of the extension of mf_file_name.

OPTIONS

       Specify command-line options -c to suppress the reading of a change file, and -s to suppress the reading of a style file.

FILES

       mftmac.tex
	      TeX macros used by mft output.

       plain.mft
	      Default style file.

       cmbase.mft
	      Style file for Computer Modern.

SEE ALSO

       mf(1), weave(1).

       Donald E. Knuth et al., Metafontware.

AUTHORS

       Donald E. Knuth wrote the program, and he ported it to Unix with the help of Pierre MacKay and the Unix port of weave by Howard Trickey and
       Pavel Curtis.  The program is published in the Metafontware technical report, available from the TeX Users Group.
