- Howdy. We have this NeXT machine kicking around, and since I noticed
- that it had a copy of TeX and METAfont which came with it, I figured
- I'd put it to good use and set my various work papers on it as well as
- play with some of the fonts. Well, much to my annoyance, when I run
- METAfont on some of the .mf files I picked up, it does everything BUT
- write the .tfm files, even though the output log says that it did
- (it's wrong). This is enormously inconvenient -- to say the least :-)
-
- Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get around this problem...
- or do I have to snag a new copy of METAfont?
-
- Just wondering
-
- DY :-)
