Can I change the inter-letter spacing in troff/groff, whilst retaining
proportional spacing?
From gtroff(1):
.tkf f s1 n1 s2 n2
Enable track kerning for font f. When the current
font is f the width of every character will be
increased by an amount between n1 and n2; when the
current point size is less than or equal to s1 the
width will be increased by n1; when it is greater
than or equal to s2 the width will be increased by
n2; when the point size is greater than or equal to
s1 and less than or equal to s2 the increase in
width is a linear function of the point size.
If this doesn't do what you want, perhaps you can explain more fully
what changes you wish to make to the inter-letter spacing.
