Mftrace is a small Python program that lets you trace a TeX bitmap font
|
|
into a PFA or PFB font (A PostScript Type1 Scalable Font). Type1 fonts
|
|
offer many advantages over bitmaps, as they allow PostScript files
|
|
to render correctly on printers with many resolutions. Moreover,
|
|
Ghostscript can generate much better PDF, if given scalable fonts.
|
|
|
|
Mftrace requires a tracing program, either potrace or autotrace.
|
|
If both are installed, potrace is chosen by default.
|
|
|
|
fontforge is an optional recommended dependency.
