ttf2texfonts Manual

In order to create and install the Postscript font foo for TeX from the TrueType fonts bar.ttf (regular typeface) and barb.ttf (bold typeface), you run the following commands:

$ ttf2texfonts --regular=bar.ttf --bold=barb.ttf foo
$ ttf2texfonts --install foo

Creating and installing the fonts can be done in a single step by running the command:

$ ttf2texfonts --regular=bar.ttf --bold=barb.ttf --install foo

To install the fonts in the directory /path/to/new/local/texmf, you run e.g.:

$ ttf2texfonts --install --texmf=/path/to/new/local/texmf foo

In your LaTeX-documents use e.g.:

\usefont{T1}{foo}{m}{n}\selectfont

In order to clean up the working directory after installing the TeX font foo, you run the command:

$ ttf2texfonts --clean foo

Uninstalling foo can be done with:

$ ttf2texfonts --uninstall foo
