I'm looking for a utility that will convert TeX CMF fonts (pk or gf) to X11 fonts (bdf or snf formats). My ftp access is limited (through princeton ftp mail server) so UUCP or direct mail would be preferable, however an ftp address would be fine. thanks Richard -- +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Richard S.

'mftobdf' does this for 'xtex', and both are part of the SeeTeX package available as contrib/SeeTeX-2.16.1.tar.Z on expo.lcs.mit.edu (thanks to whoever put it there) or pub/SeeTeX/SeeTeX-2.16.1.tar.Z on foobar.colorado.edu.

It can be found in the contrib/clients/xtex/Mftobdf directory. This utility takes a CMF pk font and converts it to a bdf font. -- Bill Walburg @ Xetron Corporation, Cincinnati, Ohio billw@kgw2.bwi.wec.com ..!uunet!tron!kgw2!billw
