- Just a thought, but has anyone considered writing a program that translates
- METAFONT fonts into Adobe Type [13], HP PCL5 scalable font format or
- Apple/Microsoft Truetype font formats?
-
- Just think of the possibilities: for example by converting METAFONT to PCL5
- we can have TeX documents that take advantage of Resolution Enhancement!
- Not to mention being able to incorporate TeX fonts in Windows word
- processors, etc.
