tetex-afm - A converter for PostScript(TM) font metric files, for use with TeX.

Website: http://www.tug.org/teTeX/
License: distributable
Vendor: Scientific Linux
Description:
Tetex-afm provides afm2tfm, a converter for PostScript font metric
files. PostScript fonts are accompanied by .afm font metric files
which describe the characteristics of each font. To use PostScript
fonts with TeX, TeX needs .tfm files that contain similar information.
Afm2tfm will convert .afm files to .tfm files.

If you are installing tetex in order to use the TeX text formatting
system, you will need to install tetex-afm. You will also need to
install tetex-dvips (for
converting .dvi files to PostScript format for printing on PostScript
printers), tetex-latex (a higher level formatting package which
provides an easier-to-use interface for TeX), and tetex-xdvi (for
previewing .dvi files in X). Unless you are an expert at using TeX,
you should also install the tetex-doc package, which includes
documentation for TeX.
