[comp.text.tex] Just a little clarification

krooglik@ecr.mu.oz.au (06/19/91)

  Can someone please clarify how TeX gathers its font information
for me, please? As I understand it, you have a set of ".tfm" files,
and a set of ".xxxpk" files.

  If I wanted to create a 518dpi font to print on a 360x360dpi
printer, how do I go about this? I know for a 300x300 you use
magstep 3 with MF, but I am still unsure as to how this puzzle
fits together.

  Thanks.
