./fonts/tex-mf2pt1, Convert stylized Metafont to PostScript Type 1

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.7nb1, Package name: tex-mf2pt1-2.7nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

mf2pt1 is a Perl script that facilitates producing PostScript
Type 1 fonts from a Metafont source file. It is not, as the
name may imply, an automatic converter of arbitrary Metafont
fonts to Type 1 format. mf2pt1 imposes a number of restrictions
on the Metafont input. If these restrictions are met, mf2pt1
will produce valid Type 1 output with more accurate control
points than can be reverse-engineered by TeXtrace, mftrace, and
other programs which convert bitmaps to outline fonts.

*: recursive bump for perl 5.36
   2022-04-14 04:35:50 by Mark Davies | Files touched by this commit (5) | Package updated
Log message:
tex-mf2pt1{,-doc}: update to 2.7

Version 2.7 of mf2pt1 supports new --output-dir and --save-temps options
for controlling where intermediate and output files are written and if
intermediate files should be retained after execution completes.  It also
allows helper programs (mpost, t1asm, and fontforge) to be overridden,
including with arguments, via environment variables.

*: recursive bump for perl 5.34
   2021-02-14 03:10:58 by Mark Davies | Files touched by this commit (4) | Package updated
Log message:
tex-mf2pt1{,-doc}: update to 2.6

Starting with version 2.6, mf2pt1 no longer automatically generates
a unique ID for the font.  Unique IDs frustrate reproducible builds
of fonts; mf2pt1 generated such IDs randomly, implying that there was
no guarantee of uniqueness; and Adobe has declared that unique IDs
are no longer necessary

In addition, a large number of external links in the mf2pt1
documentation have been updated to point to current locations.

Log message:
all: migrate several HOMEPAGEs to https

pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F

With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.

This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.
