vftool for Debian
-----------------
This is a tool to generate VF files for dvi2ps/dvi2dvi and you can use
PostScript fonts and/or TrueType fonts etc. in your TeX files with the
VF files.
Assume, for example, that you want to use new font "foo" in your TeX file.
- It might be easiest to copy /usr/share/vftool to somewhere in your
working directory.
- You should "mkdir tfm" and put foo.tfm there. Usually, for Japanese fonts,
it is enough to copy the standard min*.tfm/tmin*.tfm to foo*.tfm/tfoo*.tfm
In some case, you might want to copy goth*.tfm/tgoth*.tfm to foo*.tfm/tfoo*.tfm
- You should modify "bkfonts", "vbkfonts" and "vsyfonts" in Makefile.
In this point, you should determine the (fake) PS font name. Let call it
"bar" here.
bk-std = std \
bar:foo:monokan
will generate bar.vf, bar.tfm and foo*.vf (* = 5,6,7,8,9,10).
vbk-std = std \
bar:barv:barvsy
vsy-std = std \
bar:barvsy
will generate barv.vf and barvsy.vf
Then you should
- install these VF files in $TEXMF/fonts/vf/some/where and TFM files in
$TEXMF/fonts/tfm/else/where
- map "bar" to a resident PS font or VFlib name of some TrueType font.
The way to do this depends on drivers.
