Summary : Utilities to derive new fonts from existing ones
URL : http://tug.org/texlive/
License : GPL+
Description : The accfonts package contains three utilities to permit easy
: manipulation of fonts, in particular the creation of unusual
: accented characters. Mkt1font works on Adobe Type 1 fonts,
: vpl2vpl works on TeX virtual fonts and vpl2ovp transforms a TeX
: font to an Omega one. All three programs read in a font (either
: the font itself or a property list), together with a simple
: definition file containing lines such as '128 z acute'; they
: then write out a new version of the font with the requested new
: characters in the numerical slots specified. Great care is
: taken over the positioning of accents, and over the provision
: of kerning information for new characters; mkt1font also
: generates suitable "hints" to enhance quality at small sizes or
: poor resolutions. The programs are written in Perl.
