\section{The Program {\ttfamily type1afm}}
\label{type1afm}%
\verb+type1afm+ is a simple commandline tool (about 150 lines C source
code) that allows to generate an AFM file from a Type 1 font
program. It is intended for people who want to use Type 1 font files
that come without AFM files with \tonelib\ (or other software that
requires AFM files). The syntax is \\[0.5cm]
\verb+type1afm [-l] <fontfile1> [<fontfile2> <fontfile3> ...] +\\[0.5cm]
For each fontfile specified on the commandline, an AFM file with the
corresponding name is generated in the current directory.
Most of the work is done in \tonelib-internal functions. See section
\ref{missingafmfiles} on how AFM information is generated and written
to files.
It is usually not desireable to leave a logfile wherever the utility
has been executed. Thus by default no logfile is generated. This
behaviour can be changed by specifying the optional parameter
\verb+-l+. This causes a logfile with \verb+T1LOG_DEBUG+ as loglevel
to be written to the disk. Its name will be \verb+t1lib.log+ (see
\ref{logfile}).
