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 Kpathsea: A library for path
searching.
mktextfm
is used to generate a tfm file from the Metafont
source files for font, if possible. If destdir
is given, the generated file will be installed there,
otherwise a (rather complicated) heuristic is used.
The name of the
generated file is printed on standard output.
mktextfm
is typically called by other programs, rather than from the
command line.
options
mktextfm
accepts the following options:
--destdir dir
A directory name. If the
directory is absolute, it is used as-is. Otherwise, it is
appended to the root destination directory set in the
script.
--help
Print help message and exit.
--version
Print version information and
exit.
