PFM2AFM by Ken Borgendale is v.1.0 (source code dated Oct. 14, 1991) of
a program which will convert Windows .PFM files to .AFM files required
by PageStream 2.x. The .AFM file is an Adobe Font Metrics file. This
is an ASCII flatfile giving the metrics for a type 1 font. PageStream
requires this file to install a type 1 font. It also requires the
matching .PFB file which is the actual font. Many Type 1 PostScript
fonts from non-Adobe sources are shipped for Windows with the .PFM
files, but without the matching .AFM file. This utility overcomes that
problem. Nowhere in the docs will you see a mention of Atari (just
Windoz and OS/2, though the included C source code has been modified to
work on an Atari). In fact the program itself only mentions the Amiga
port! But it runs on my STE, and that's what matters!
