I've used the program AFM2TFM to convert PostScript AFM files into TFM files for use with TeX. Problem is that I want all the kerning information in the AFM file intact and *no* character recoding whatsoever. Is such a thing possible with another program? When producing a "raw" font file (no recoding) AFM2TFM doesn't output any kerning information. When producing a "virtual" file it rearranges some of the characters to make them conform to the TeX coding (mostly ligatures). Upon closer examination of the AFM2TFM code I see that when converting kerning information it ignores kerning around the digits 0-9; this is very undesirable for me. I need both character coding *and* all kerning information preserved in the conversion. (The font I am working with is not a standard text font and the standard conventions are not applicable.) Thank! Any help is greatly appreciated! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lee Hetherington MIT Spoken Language Systems Group -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
