63 is the name of the \*(tx font metric file for the font.
65 is a file giving the roff names for characters in the font;
66 this file should consist of a sequence of lines of the form:
73 is a decimal integer giving the position of the character in the font,
77 are the roff names of the character.
78 If a character has no roff names but exists in the tfm file,
79 then it will be put in the roff font file as an unnamed character.
81 is the name of the roff font file.
82 The roff font file is written to
87 option should be given if the font is special
92 should search it whenever
93 a character is not found in the current font.)
94 If the font is special,
95 it should be listed in the
97 command in the DESC file;
98 if it is not special, there is no need to list it, since
100 can automatically mount it when it's first used.
102 To do a good job of math typesetting, @L_ROFF@ requires
103 font metric information not present in the tfm file.
104 The reason for this is that \*(tx has separate math italic fonts
105 whereas @L_ROFF@ uses normal italic fonts for math.
106 The additional information required by @L_ROFF@ is given by the
109 macro in the Metafont programs for the Computer Modern fonts.
110 In a text font (a font for which
112 is false), Metafont normally ignores these two arguments.
113 Metafont can be made to put this information in the gf file
114 by loading the following definition after
121 def ignore_math_fit(expr left_adjustment,right_adjustment) =
122 special "adjustment";
123 numspecial left_adjustment*16/designsize;
124 numspecial right_adjustment*16/designsize;
129 For the EC font family, load the following definition after
131 (it is probably easiest to patch
137 def ignore_math_fit(expr left_adjustment,right_adjustment) =
138 ori_special "adjustment";
139 ori_numspecial left_adjustment*16/designsize;
140 ori_numspecial right_adjustment*16/designsize;

164 The effect of this option is to add the

172 should be an integer;
173 it may be given in decimal,
180 The effect of this option is to ignore any kerns whose second component
