Creation of a PostScript Type 1 logo font with MetaType 1 beginning documentation, I was able to create a first font quite quickly by relying on an existing META- FONT source. Of course, knowledge of METAPOST or METAFONT is highly desirable. Understanding hinting is a bit more difficult, but finally possible. References [1] Bogusław Jackowski, Janusz M.

Procedures for font comparison Karel Píška Institute of Physics of the ASCR, v.v. i. CZ-182 21 Prague, Czech Republic piska (at) fzu dot cz Abstract This contribution presents several programs: Linux standalone scripts for comparison and visualization of font elements. Simplified versions of the programs are restricted to use with the fonts already installed in a TEX system and show, for example, how to solve the following tasks: • Comparison of two bitmapped or outline representations of a glyph pair at two different resolutions or from two related TEX fonts using a color mix technique in pdfTEX. • Comparison of kerning pairs in two (or three) related TEX fonts or in two releases of one font. • Comparison of a glyph pair in two versions or in two outline fonts, analyzing sequences of cubic curve segments in font programs. The programs will be demonstrated by several examples. 1 Common characteristics The purpose of the tfcpr package, containing procedures for TEX font comparison, is to provide tools for checking and comparison of the fonts used in a TEX environment. This paper is a complementary work to the article “Font verification and comparison in examples” [9]. The programs are written in the form of Linux scripts, written in the bash shell language. After download they are unzipped into a local working directory. The simplest method is to start the programs locally with the ‘./’ prefix. They invoke various programs from Linux or its TEX subsystem, such as gawk [6], METAFONT, L A TEX or pdfL A TEX, dvips, etc., and Acrobat Reader is usually called in the final step. They read the font files: metrics (tfm), METAFONT sources, Type 1 (pfb) or OpenType (otf); generate intermediate font bitmaps (pk) and PostScript; and produce PDF documents. The kpathsea library is used to find font files. Uninstalled fonts, including unused versions or releases, should be copied for testing purposes also into the current local directory. Additionally, we have to change their file names to avoid name collisions if it is necessary to distinguish them from fonts already existing in our system. FontForge [8] and t1utils [7] are also used for preprocessing of data from outline fonts. The real testing software is under permanent revision depending on a font family being processed at the moment, since it must often be modified for various encoding schemes and naming conventions; usually all glyphs and all character pairs for a given encoding should be processed. It has no general or common user interface and it would be too difficult and expensive to transform it to a transparent and computer independent form. The programs presented here are simplified excerpts restricted to processing of a single glyph or a character pair and extended with a user interface to call them via commands and produce the visual output in PDF. They can be used quickly. On the other hand, they do not work efficiently. In most examples, fonts from the Computer Modern [2, 3], CS fonts [4], and the Latin Modern [5] families are presented. 2 Glyph comparison for bitmapped fonts The aim in comparing a METAFONT font and its Type 1 version at various resolutions is to check the correctness of the font design in METAFONT and its proper conversion into an outline font format. We can compare glyph images for one META- FONT font at two different resolutions or the bitmapped representation with the Type 1 version of the font converted from its METAFONT sources. The execution of the command ./cprpk cmr10 97 1200 2400 starts by generating bitmaps with METAFONT. The four parameters define the font name, the decimal (or octal, for example \’141) character code and 50 TUGboat, Volume 29, No. 1 —XVII European TEX Conference, 2007
