Description
-----------

mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts from a Metafont
source file.  It is not, as the name may imply, an automatic converter
of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format.  mf2pt1 imposes a number
of restrictions on the Metafont input.  If these restrictions are met,
mf2pt1 will produce valid Type 1 output.  (Actually, it produces
"disassembled" Type 1; the t1asm program from the t1utils suite will
convert this to a true Type 1 font.)


Installation
------------

For installation instructions, see the mf2pt1 manual (mf2pt1.pdf).
