Hello everybody, I'm using for a short time DMxxx.tfm instead of CMxxx.tfm with emTeX in order to get correct hyphenation for accented french words. Dvi-files built with these "virtual fonts" have then to be converted with a special tool into the normal CM-dvi-files (in order to be printed with the classic CM-fonts). Now I would like to know: 1. Does there exist any documentation about virtual fonts ? 2. Is the coding scheme of DM-fonts exactly the same as for the extended DC-fonts ? 3. How to tell METAFONT that the font you want to create is virtual ? 4. What are *.vf files for ? Thanks in advance for your response. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ralf Mollenhauer | | Ecole Nationale Superieure de Physique de Marseille | | Laboratoire d'Optique des Surfaces et des Couches Minces | | Domaine Universitaire de St. Jerome | | 13397 Marseille Cedex 20 e-mail ENSP067@FRMRS11.BITNET | | FRANCE FAX (+33) 91 28 80 67 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------
