<h2 class="chapter">1 Introduction</h2>
<a name="index-introduction"></a>
<p>This manual corresponds to version 2015 of Web2c, released in
May 2015.
</p>
<a name="index-Knuth_002c-Donald-E_002e"></a>
<a name="index-TeX_002c-Web2c-implementation-of"></a>
<a name="index-Hobby_002c-John"></a>
<a name="index-Breitenlohner_002c-Peter"></a>
<p><em>Web2c</em> is the name of a TeX implementation, originally for Unix,
but now also running under DOS, Amiga, and other operating systems. By
<em>TeX implementation</em>, we mean all of the standard programs
developed by the Stanford TeX project directed by Donald E. Knuth:
Metafont, DVItype, GFtoDVI, BibTeX, Tangle, etc., as well as TeX
itself. Other programs are also included: DVIcopy, written by Peter
Breitenlohner, MetaPost and its utilities (derived from Metafont), by
John Hobby, etc.
</p>
<a name="index-translation-from-WEB-to-C"></a>
<a name="index-strategy_002c-overall"></a>
<p>General strategy: Web2c works, as its name implies, by translating the
WEB source in which TeX is written into C source code. Its output is
not self-contained, however; it makes extensive use of many macros and
functions in a library (the <samp>web2c/lib</samp> directory in the sources).
Therefore, it will not work without change on an arbitrary WEB program.
</p>
<a name="index-licensing-terms"></a>
<a name="index-freedom-of-Web2c"></a>
<a name="index-ice-cream"></a>
<a name="index-Henry_002c-Patrick"></a>
<p>Availability: All of Web2c is freely available—“free” both in the
sense of no cost (free ice cream) and of having the source code to
modify and/or redistribute (free speech). See <a href="kpathsea.html#unixtex_002eftp">unixtex.ftp</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>, for the practical details of how to obtain Web2c.
</p>
<p>Different parts of the Web2c distribution have different licensing
terms, however, reflecting the different circumstances of their
creation; consult each source file for exact details. The main
practical implication for redistributors of Web2c is that the executables
are covered by the GNU General Public License, and therefore anyone
who gets a binary distribution must also get the sources, as explained
by the terms of the GPL (see <a href="kpathsea.html#Copying">Copying</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). The
GPL covers the Web2c executables, including <code>tex</code>, because the Free
Software Foundation sponsored the initial development of the Kpathsea
library that Web2c uses. The basic source files from Stanford, however,
have their own copyright terms or are in the public domain, and are not
covered by the GPL.

<a name="index-Berry_002c-Karl"></a>
<a name="index-Weber_002c-Olaf"></a>
<p>History: Tomas Rokicki originated the TeX-to-C system in 1987,
working from the first change files for TeX under Unix, which were
done primarily by Howard Trickey and Pavel Curtis. Tim Morgan then took
over development and maintenance for a number of years; the name changed
to Web-to-C somewhere in there. In 1990, Karl Berry became the
maintainer. He made many changes to the original sources, and started
using the shorter name Web2c. In 1997, Olaf Weber took over. Dozens of
other people have contributed; their names are listed in the
<samp>ChangeLog</samp> files.

<a name="index-Stallman_002c-Richard"></a>
<p>Other acknowledgements: The University of Massachusetts at Boston
(particularly Rick Martin and Bob Morris) provided computers and ftp
access to me for many years. Richard Stallman at the Free Software
Foundation employed me while I wrote the original path searching library
(for the GNU font utilities). (rms also gave us Emacs, GDB, and GCC,
without which I cannot imagine developing Web2c.) And, of course,
TeX would not exist in the first place without Donald E. Knuth.

<h2 class="chapter">2 Installation</h2>
<a name="index-configuration"></a>
<a name="index-compilation"></a>
<a name="index-installation"></a>
<p>(A copy of this chapter is in the distribution file <samp>web2c/INSTALL</samp>.)
</p>
<p>Installing Web2c is mostly the same as installing any other
Kpathsea-using program. Therefore, for the basic steps involved,
see <a href="kpathsea.html#Installation">Installation</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>. (A copy is in the file
<samp>kpathsea/INSTALL</samp>.)
</p>
<p>One peculiarity to Web2c is that the source distribution comes in two
files: <samp>web.tar.gz</samp> and <samp>web2c.tar.gz</samp>. You must retrieve and
unpack them both. (We have two because the former archive contains the
very large and seldom-changing original WEB source files.)
See <a href="kpathsea.html#unixtex_002eftp">unixtex.ftp</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>.
</p>
<a name="index-mpost_002c-reason-for-name-change"></a>
<p>Another peculiarity is the MetaPost program. Although it has been
installed previously as <code>mp</code>, as of Web2c 7.0 the installed name is
now <code>mpost</code>, to avoid conflict with the <code>mp</code> program that does
prettyprinting. This approach was recommended by the MetaPost author,
John Hobby. If you as the TeX administrator wish to make it
available under its shorter name as well, you will have to set up a link
or some such yourself. And of course individual users can do the same.
</p>
<p>For solutions to common installation problems and information on how to
report a bug, see the file <samp>kpathsea/BUGS</samp> (see <a href="kpathsea.html#Bugs">Bugs</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). See also the Web2c home page,

<p>In addition to the <code>configure</code> options listed in the previous
section, there are a few things that can be affected at compile-time
with C definitions, rather than with <code>configure</code>. Using any of
these is unusual.
</p>
<p>To specify extra compiler flags (‘<samp>-D<var>name</var></samp>’ in this case), the
simplest thing to do is:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">make XCFLAGS="<var>ccoptions</var>"
</pre></div>
<p>You can also set the <code>CFLAGS</code> environment variable before
running <code>configure</code>. See <a href="kpathsea.html#configure-environment">configure environment</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>.

<p>To validate your TeX, Metafont, and MetaPost executables, run
‘<samp>make triptrap</samp>’. This runs the trip, trap, and mptrap “torture
tests”. See the files <samp>triptrap/tripman.tex</samp>,
<samp>triptrap/trapman.tex</samp>, and <samp>triptrap/mptrap.readme</samp> for
detailed information and background on the tests.
</p>
<p>The differences between your executables’ behavior and the standard
values will show up on your terminal. The usual differences (these are
all acceptable) are:
</p>
<ul>
<li> string usage and table sizes;
</li><li> glue set ratios;
</li><li> ‘<samp>down4</samp>’, ‘<samp>right4</samp>’, and ‘<samp>y4</samp>’ commands in DVItype output;
</li><li> dates and times.
</li></ul>
<p>Any other differences are trouble. The most common culprit in
the past has been compiler bugs, especially when optimizing.
See <a href="kpathsea.html#TeX-or-Metafont-failing">TeX or Metafont failing</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>.
</p>
<p>The files <samp>trip.diffs</samp>, <samp>mftrap.diffs</samp>, and
<samp>mptrap.diffs</samp> in the <samp>triptrap</samp> directory show the standard
diffs against the original output. If you diff your diffs against these
files, you should come up clean. For example
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">make trip >&mytrip.diffs
diff triptrap/trip.diffs mytrip.diffs
</pre></div>
<p>To run the tests separately, use the targets <code>trip</code>, <code>trap</code>,
and <code>mptrap</code>.
</p>
<p>To run simple tests for all the programs as well as the torture tests,
run ‘<samp>make check</samp>’. You can compare the output to the distributed
file <samp>tests/check.log</samp> if you like.

<a name="index-dynamic-array-allocation"></a>
<p>Of course, ideally all arrays would be dynamically expanded as
necessary, so the only limiting factor would be the amount of swap space
available. Unfortunately, implementing this is extremely difficult, as
the fixed size of arrays is assumed in many places throughout the source
code. These runtime limits are a practical compromise between the
compile-time limits in previous versions, and truly dynamic arrays. (On
the other hand, the Web2c BibTeX implementation does do dynamic
reallocation of some arrays.)

<a name="index-getopt_005flong_005fonly"></a>
<p>To provide a clean and consistent behavior, we chose to have all these
programs use the GNU function <code>getopt_long_only</code> to parse command
lines. However, we do use in a restricted mode, where all the options
have to come before the rest of the arguments.
</p>
<a name="index-_002d-starts-option-names"></a>
<a name="index-_002d_002d-starts-option-names"></a>
<p>As a result, you can:
</p><ul>
<li> use ‘<samp>-</samp>’ or ‘<samp>--</samp>’ to start an option name;
</li><li> use any unambiguous abbreviation for an option name;
</li><li> separate option names and values with either ‘<samp>=</samp>’ or one or more
spaces;
</li><li> <a name="index-_002d-starting-a-filename"></a>
<a name="index-filenames-starting-with-_002d"></a>
use filenames that would otherwise look like options by putting them
after an option ‘<samp>--</samp>’.
</li></ul>
<p>By convention, non-option arguments, if specified, generally define the
name of an input file, as documented for each program.
</p>
<p>If a particular option with a value is given more than once, it is the
last value that counts.
</p>
<p>For example, the following command line specifies the options
‘<samp>foo</samp>’, ‘<samp>bar</samp>’, and ‘<samp>verbose</samp>’; gives the value ‘<samp>baz</samp>’
to the ‘<samp>abc</samp>’ option, and the value ‘<samp>xyz</samp>’ to the ‘<samp>quux</samp>’
option; and specifies the filename <samp>-myfile-</samp>.

Aleph, this option is always on, and the file has extension ‘<samp>.ofl</samp>’.
</p>
<p>Ordinarily, the ‘<samp>.fls</samp>’ file is written to the same location as
the ‘<samp>.log</samp>’ file, for example, respecting

(or in response to the ‘<samp>**</samp>’ prompt), the ‘<samp>.fls</samp>’ might be
written to the current directory, or include an integer (the current
pid), as in <samp>texput1234.fls</samp>. You can use <samp>-jobname</samp> to

(see <a href="kpathsea.html#Supported-file-formats">Supported file formats</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). Reading

<p>All the programs generally follow the usual convention for output files.
Namely, they are placed in the directory current when the program is
run, regardless of any input file location; or, in a few cases, output
is to standard output.
</p>
<p>For example, if you run ‘<samp>tex /tmp/foo</samp>’, for example, the output

<samp>/tmp/foo.dvi</samp> and <samp>/tmp/foo.log</samp>.

<p>If the current directory is not writable, and ‘<samp>-output-directory</samp>’

output files are written to the directory specified.
</p>
<a name="index-TEXMFOUTPUT_002c-used-for-reading"></a>
<p><code>TEXMFOUTPUT</code> is also checked for input files, as TeX often
generates files that need to be subsequently read; for input, no

<p>The initial form is enabled if:
</p><ol>

<a name="index-virgin-programs"></a>
<a name="index-production-use"></a>
<p>The <em>virgin</em> form is the one generally invoked for production use.

<p>The <em>initial</em> form is generally used only to create memory dumps

<a name="index-creating-memory-dumps"></a>
<a name="index-writing-memory-dumps"></a>
<p>The programs all create memory dumps in slightly idiosyncratic (thought
substantially similar) way, so we describe the details in separate
sections (references below). The basic idea is to run the initial
version of the program (see <a href="#Initial-and-virgin">Initial and virgin</a>), read the source
file to define the macros, and then execute the <code>\dump</code> primitive.
</p>
<p>Also, each program uses a different filename extension for its memory
dumps, since although they are completely analogous they are not
interchangeable (TeX cannot read a Metafont memory dump, for
example).
</p>
<p>Here is a list of filename extensions with references to examples of
creating memory dumps:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt>TeX</dt>
<dd><p>(‘<samp>.fmt</samp>’) See <a href="#Initial-TeX">Initial TeX</a>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>Metafont</dt>
<dd><p>(‘<samp>.base</samp>’) See <a href="#Initial-Metafont">Initial Metafont</a>.
</p></dd>
</dl>
<p>When making memory dumps, the programs read environment variables and
configuration files for path searching and other values as usual. If
you are making a new installation and have environment variables
pointing to an old one, for example, you will probably run into
difficulties.

<p>The virgin form (see <a href="#Initial-and-virgin">Initial and virgin</a>) of each program always
reads a memory dump before processing normal source input. All three
programs determine the memory dump to use in the same way:
</p>
<ol>
<li> If the first non-option command-line argument begins with ‘<samp>&</samp>’, the
program uses the remainder of that argument as the memory dump name.
For example, running ‘<samp>tex \&super</samp>’ reads <samp>super.fmt</samp>. (The
backslash protects the ‘<samp>&</samp>’ against interpretation by the shell.)
</li><li> <a name="index-_002dfmt_003dfmt"></a>
<a name="index-_002dbase_003dbase"></a>
If the ‘<samp>-fmt</samp>’ resp. ‘<samp>-base</samp>’ option is
specified, its value is used.
</li><li> <a name="index-_002dprogname_003dstring-1"></a>
If the ‘<samp>-progname</samp>’ option is specified, its value is used.
</li><li> <a name="index-_0025_0026-magic-number"></a>
If the first line of the main input file (which must be specified on the
command line, not in response to ‘<samp>**</samp>’) is <code>%&<var>dump</var></code>, and
<var>dump</var> is an existing memory dump of the appropriate type,
<var>dump</var> is used.
<p>The first line of the main input file can also specify which character
translation file is to be used: <code>%&-translate-file=<var>tcxfile</var></code>
(see <a href="#TCX-files">TCX files</a>).
</p>
<p>These two roles can be combined: <code>%&<var>dump</var>
-translate-file=<var>tcxfile</var></code>. If this is done, the name of the dump
must be given first.
</p>
</li><li> <a name="index-program-name_002c-determines-memory-dump"></a>
<a name="index-links-to-binaries"></a>
Otherwise, the program uses the program invocation name, most commonly
<samp>tex</samp> resp. <samp>mf</samp>. For example, if <samp>latex</samp> is a link
to <samp>tex</samp>, and the user runs ‘<samp>latex foo</samp>’, <samp>latex.fmt</samp>
will be used.

<a name="index-_002d_002ddisable_002ddump_002dshare-configure-option"></a>
<p>By default, memory dump files are generally sharable between
architectures of different types; specifically, on machines of different
endianness (see <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_mono/libc.html#Byte-order">Byte order</a> in <cite>GNU C Library</cite>). (This is a
feature of the Web2c implementation, and is not true of all TeX
implementations.) If you specify ‘<samp>--disable-dump-share</samp>’ to
<code>configure</code>, however, memory dumps will be endian-dependent.
</p>
<a name="index-byte-swapping"></a>
<a name="index-swapping-bytes"></a>
<p>The reason to do this is speed. To achieve endian-independence, the
reading of memory dumps on LittleEndian architectures, such as PC’s and
DEC architectures, is somewhat slowed (all the multibyte values have to
be swapped). Usually, this is not noticeable, and the advantage of
being able to share memory dumps across all platforms at a site far
outweighs the speed loss. But if you’re installing Web2c for use on
LittleEndian machines only, perhaps on a PC being used only by you, you
may wish to get maximum speed.
</p>
<a name="index-floating_002dpoint-values"></a>
<a name="index-glue-ratio-representations"></a>
<p>TeXnically, even without ‘<samp>--disable-dump-share</samp>’, sharing of
<samp>.fmt</samp> files cannot be guaranteed to work. Floating-point values
are always written in native format, and hence will generally not be
readable across platforms. Fortunately, TeX uses floating point
only to represent glue ratios, and all common formats (plain,
LaTeX, AMSTeX, …) do not do any glue setting at
<samp>.fmt</samp>-creation time. Metafont does not use floating point in
any dumped value at all.

<a name="index-time-and-date_002c-in-memory-dumps"></a>
<a name="index-memory-dumps_002c-contain-date-and-time"></a>
<p>Incidentally, different memory dump files will never compare equal
byte-for-byte, because the program always dumps the current date and
time. So don’t be alarmed by just a few bytes difference.

<a name="index-filename-conventions_002c-in-input-files"></a>
<a name="index-_005cinput-filenames"></a>
<p>TeX, Metafont, and MetaPost source programs can all read other source
files with the <code>\input</code> (TeX) and <code>input</code> (MF and MP)
primitives:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\input <var>name</var> % in TeX
</pre></div>
<a name="index-space_002dterminated-filenames"></a>
<a name="index-whitespace_002dterminated-filenames"></a>
<a name="index-terminator-for-filenames"></a>
<p>The file <var>name</var> can always be terminated with whitespace; for
Metafont and MetaPost, the statement terminator ‘<samp>;</samp>’ also works.
(LaTeX and other macro packages provide other interfaces to
<code>\input</code> that allow different notation; here we are concerned only
with the primitive operation.)
</p>
<p>As of Web2c version 7.5.3, double-quote characters can be used to
include spaces or other special cases. In typical use, the ‘<samp>"</samp>’
characters surround the entire filename:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\input "filename with spaces"
</pre></div>
<p>Technically, the quote characters can be used inside the name, and
can enclose any characters, as in:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\input filename" "with" "spaces
</pre></div>
<p>One more point. In LaTeX, the quotes are needed inside the braces, thus
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\input{a b} % fails
\input{"a b"} % ok
</pre></div>
<p>This quoting mechanism comes into play <em>after</em> TeX has
tokenized and expanded the input. So, multiple spaces and tabs may be
seen as a single space, active characters such as ‘<samp>~</samp>’ are
expanded first, and so on. (See below.)

<a name="index-eight_002dbit-characters-in-filenames"></a>
<a name="index-meta-characters-in-filenames"></a>
<p>On the other hand, various C library routines and Unix itself use the null
byte (character code zero, ASCII NUL) to terminate strings. So
filenames in Web2c cannot contain nulls, even though TeX itself does
not treat NUL specially.
In addition, some older Unix variants do not allow eight-bit characters
(codes 128–255) in filenames.
</p>
<a name="index-portable-filenames"></a>
<p>For maximal portability of your document across systems, use only the
characters ‘<samp>a</samp>’–‘<samp>z</samp>’, ‘<samp>0</samp>’–‘<samp>9</samp>’, and ‘<samp>.</samp>’, and
restrict your filenames to at most eight characters (not including the
extension), and at most a three-character extension. Do not use
anything but simple filenames, since directory separators vary among
systems; instead, add the necessary directories to the appropriate
search path.
</p>
<a name="index-_007e-expansion-in-filenames"></a>
<a name="index-_0024-expansion-in-filenames"></a>
<p>Finally, the present Web2c implementation does ‘<samp>~</samp>’ and ‘<samp>$</samp>’
expansion on <var>name</var>, unlike Knuth’s original implementation and
older versions of Web2c. Thus:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\input ~jsmith/$foo.bar
</pre></div>
<p>will dereference the environment variable or Kpathsea config file value
‘<samp>foo</samp>’ and read that file extended with ‘<samp>.bar</samp>’ in user
‘<samp>jsmith</samp>’’s home directory. You can also use braces, as in
‘<samp>${foo}bar</samp>’, if you want to follow the variable name with a letter,
numeral, or ‘<samp>_</samp>’.
</p>
<p>(So another way to get a program to read a filename containing
whitespace is to define an environment variable and dereference it.)
</p>
<a name="index-_005cstring"></a>
<p>In all the common TeX formats (plain TeX, LaTeX, AMSTeX),
the characters ‘<samp>~</samp>’ and ‘<samp>$</samp>’ have special category codes, so to
actually use these in a document you have to change their catcodes or
use <code>\string</code>. (The result is unportable anyway, see the
suggestions above.) The place where they are most likely to be useful
is when typing interactively.

<a name="index-TeX_002c-description-of"></a>
<a name="index-typesetting"></a>
<a name="index-mathematical-typesetting"></a>
<p>TeX is a typesetting system: it was especially designed to handle
complex mathematics, as well as most ordinary text typesetting.
</p>
<a name="index-batch-languages"></a>
<a name="index-word-processor_002c-not"></a>
<p>TeX is a batch language, like C or Pascal, and not an interactive
“word processor”: you compile a TeX input file into a corresponding
device-independent (DVI) file (and then translate the DVI file to the
commands for a particular output device). This approach has both
considerable disadvantages and considerable advantages. For a complete
description of the TeX language, see <cite>The TeXbook</cite>
(see <a href="#References">References</a>). Many other books on TeX, introductory and
otherwise, are available.

<h3 class="section">4.1 <code>tex</code> invocation</h3>
<a name="index-tex"></a>
<a name="index-TeX_002c-invocation"></a>
<p>TeX (usually invoked as <code>tex</code>) formats the given text and
commands, and outputs a corresponding device-independent representation
of the typeset document. This section merely describes the options
available in the Web2c implementation. For a complete description of
the TeX typesetting language, see <cite>The TeXbook</cite>
(see <a href="#References">References</a>).
</p>
<p>TeX, Metafont, and MetaPost process the command line (described
here) and determine their memory dump (fmt) file in the same way
(see <a href="#Memory-dumps">Memory dumps</a>). Synopses:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">tex [<var>option</var>]… [<var>texname</var>[.tex]] [<var>tex-commands</var>]
tex [<var>option</var>]… \<var>first-line</var>
tex [<var>option</var>]… &<var>fmt</var> <var>args</var>
</pre></div>
<a name="index-_002etex"></a>
<a name="index-TeX_002c-input-files-found"></a>
<p>TeX searches the usual places for the main input file <var>texname</var>
(see <a href="kpathsea.html#Supported-file-formats">Supported file formats</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>), extending
<var>texname</var> with <samp>.tex</samp> if necessary. To see all the
relevant paths, set the environment variable <code>KPATHSEA_DEBUG</code> to
‘<samp>-1</samp>’ before running the program.
</p>
<p>After <var>texname</var> is read, TeX processes any remaining
<var>tex-commands</var> on the command line as regular TeX input. Also,
if the first non-option argument begins with a TeX escape character
(usually <code>\</code>), TeX processes all non-option command-line
arguments as a line of regular TeX input.
</p>
<p>If no arguments or options are specified, TeX prompts for an
input file name with ‘<samp>**</samp>’.
</p>
<a name="index-texput"></a>
<p>TeX writes the main DVI output to the file
<samp><var>basetexname</var>.dvi</samp>, where <var>basetexname</var> is the basename of
<var>texname</var>, or ‘<samp>texput</samp>’ if no input file was specified. A DVI
file is a device-independent binary representation of your TeX
document. The idea is that after running TeX, you translate the DVI
file using a separate program to the commands for a particular output
device, such as a PostScript printer
(see <a href="dvips.html#Top">Introduction</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>) or an X Window System display
(see xdvi(1)).
</p>
<a name="index-EC-fonts"></a>
<a name="index-mktextfM_002c-disabling"></a>
<a name="index-_005cfont-and-dynamic-generation"></a>
<p>TeX also reads TFM files for any fonts you load in your document with
the <code>\font</code> primitive. By default, it runs an external program
named <samp>mktextfm</samp> to create any nonexistent TFM files. You can
disable this at configure-time or runtime (see <a href="kpathsea.html#mktex-configuration">mktex
configuration</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). This is enabled mostly for the
sake of the EC fonts, which can be generated at any size.

<a name="index-dot-files_002c-written-by-TeX-programs"></a>
<a name="index-security_002c-and-output-files"></a>
<p>TeX can write output files, via the <code>\openout</code> primitive; this opens
a security hole vulnerable to Trojan horse attack: an unwitting user could
run a TeX program that overwrites, say, <samp>~/.rhosts</samp>. (MetaPost has
a <code>write</code> primitive with similar implications). To alleviate this and
similar problems the functions <code>kpathsea_out_name_ok</code> and
<code>kpathsea_in_name_ok</code> from the Kpathse library (see <a href="kpathsea.html#Calling-sequence">Calling
sequence</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>) are used to determine if a given filename
is acceptable to be opened for output or input, depending on the setting of
the configuration variables <code>openout_any</code> and <code>openin_any</code>:
‘<samp>a</samp>’ (for “any”, the default for <code>openin_any</code>), ‘<samp>r</samp>’ (for
“restricted”), or ‘<samp>p</samp>’ (for “paranoid”, the default for
<code>openout_any</code>).
</p>
<p>In any case, all <code>\openout</code> filenames are recorded in the log file,
except those opened on the first line of input, which is processed when
the log file has not yet been opened.
</p>
<p>The program accepts the following options, as well as the standard
‘<samp>-help</samp>’ and ‘<samp>-version</samp>’ (see <a href="#Common-options">Common options</a>):

<p>This option makes TeX output specific source information using
‘<samp>\special</samp>’ commands in the DVI file. These ‘<samp>\special</samp>’ track
the current file name and line number.
</p>
<p>Using the first form of this option, the ‘<samp>\special</samp>’ commands are
inserted automatically.
</p>
<p>In the second form of the option, <var>string</var> is
a comma separated list of the following values: ‘<samp>cr</samp>’,
‘<samp>display</samp>’, ‘<samp>hbox</samp>’, ‘<samp>math</samp>’, ‘<samp>par</samp>’, ‘<samp>parend</samp>’,
‘<samp>vbox</samp>’. You can use this list to specify where you want TeX to
output such commands. For example, ‘<samp>-src-specials=cr,math</samp>’ will
output source information every line and every math formula.
</p>
<p>These commands can be used with the appropriate DVI viewer and text
editor to switch from the current position in the editor to the same
position in the viewer and back from the viewer
to the editor.
</p>
<p>This option works by inserting ‘<samp>\special</samp>’ commands into the token
stream, and thus in principle these additional tokens can be recovered
or seen by the tricky-enough macros. If you run across a case, let us
know, because this counts as a bug. However, such bugs are very hard
to fix, requiring significant changes to TeX, so please don’t count
on it.
</p>
<p>Redefining ‘<samp>\special</samp>’ will not affect the functioning of this
option. The commands inserted into the token stream are
hard-coded to always use the ‘<samp>\special</samp>’ primitive.
</p>
<p>TeX does not pass the trip test when this option is enabled.

<p>Unlike Metafont and MetaPost, many format files are commonly used with
TeX. The standard one implementing the features described in the
<cite>TeXbook</cite> is ‘<samp>plain.fmt</samp>’, also known as ‘<samp>tex.fmt</samp>’
(again, see <a href="#Memory-dumps">Memory dumps</a>). It is created by default during
installation, but you can also do so by hand if necessary (e.g., if an
update to <samp>plain.tex</samp> is issued):
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">tex -ini '\input plain \dump'
</pre></div>
<p>(The quotes prevent interpretation of the backslashes from the shell.)
Then install the resulting <samp>plain.fmt</samp> in ‘<samp>$(fmtdir)</samp>’
(<samp>/usr/local/share/texmf/web2c</samp> by default), and link
<samp>tex.fmt</samp> to it.
</p>
<p>The necessary invocation for generating a format file differs for each
format, so instructions that come with the format should explain. The
top-level <samp>web2c</samp> Makefile has targets for making most common

(see <a href="#Initial-TeX">Initial TeX</a>). A number of formats are in reasonably
widespread use, and the Web2c Makefile has targets to make the versions

<p>Multi-lingual TeX (<code>mltex</code>) is an extension of TeX originally
written by Michael Ferguson and now updated and maintained by Bernd
Raichle. It allows the use of non-existing glyphs in a font by
declaring glyph substitutions. These are restricted to substitutions of
an accented character glyph, which need not be defined in the current
font, by its appropriate <code>\accent</code> construction using a base and
accent character glyph, which do have to exist in the current font.
This substitution is automatically done behind the scenes, if necessary,
and thus MLTeX additionally supports hyphenation of words containing
an accented character glyph for fonts missing this glyph (e.g., Computer
Modern). Standard TeX suppresses hyphenation in this case.
</p>
<p>MLTeX works at <samp>.fmt</samp>-creation time: the basic idea is to
specify the ‘<samp>-mltex</samp>’ option to TeX when you <code>\dump</code> a
format. Then, when you subsequently invoke TeX and read that
<code>.fmt</code> file, the MLTeX features described below will be enabled.
</p>
<p>Generally, you use special macro files to create an MLTeX <code>.fmt</code>
file.
</p>
<p>The sections below describe the two new primitives that MLTeX defines.
Aside from these, MLTeX is completely compatible with standard TeX.

<h4 class="subsubsection">4.4.1.1 <code>\charsubdef</code>: Character substitutions</h4>
<a name="index-_005ccharsubdef-and-MLTeX"></a>
<p>The most important primitive MLTeX adds is <code>\charsubdef</code>, used
in a way reminiscent of <code>\chardef</code>:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\charsubdef <var>composite</var> [=] <var>accent</var> <var>base</var>
</pre></div>
<p>Each of <var>composite</var>, <var>accent</var>, and <var>base</var> are font glyph
numbers, expressed in the usual TeX syntax: <tt>`\e</tt> symbolically,
<tt>'145</tt> for octal, <tt>"65</tt> for hex, <tt>101</tt> for decimal.
</p>
<p>MLTeX’s <code>\charsubdef</code> declares how to construct an accented
character glyph (not necessarily existing in the current font) using two
character glyphs (that do exist). Thus it defines whether a character
glyph code, either typed as a single character or using the <code>\char</code>
primitive, will be mapped to a font glyph or to an <code>\accent</code> glyph
construction.
</p>
<p>For example, if you assume glyph code 138
<a name="index-e_002dcircumflex"></a>
(decimal) for an e-circumflex
and you are using the Computer Modern fonts, which have the circumflex
accent in position 18 and lowercase ‘e’ in the usual ASCII position 101
decimal, you would use <code>\charsubdef</code> as follows:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">\charsubdef 138 = 18 101
</pre></div>
<p>For the plain TeX format to make use of this substitution, you have
to redefine the circumflex accent macro <code>\^</code> in such a way that if
its argument is character ‘e’ the expansion <code>\char138 </code> is used
instead of <code>\accent18 e</code>. Similar <code>\charsubdef</code> declaration
and macro redefinitions have to be done for all other accented
characters.
</p>
<p>To disable a previous <code>\charsubdef <var>c</var></code>, redefine <var>c</var>
as a pair of zeros. For example:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\charsubdef '321 = 0 0 % disable N tilde
</pre></div>
<a name="index-N-tilde"></a>
<p>(Octal <tt>'321</tt> is the ISO Latin-1 value for the Spanish N tilde.)
</p>
<p><code>\charsubdef</code> commands should only be given once. Although in
principle you can use <code>\charsubdef</code> at any time, the result is
unspecified. If <code>\charsubdef</code> declarations are changed, usually
either incorrect character dimensions will be used or MLTeX will
output missing character warnings. (The substitution of a
<code>\charsubdef</code> is used by TeX when appending the character node
to the current horizontal list, to compute the width of a horizontal box
when the box gets packed, and when building the <code>\accent</code>
construction at <code>\shipout</code>-time. In summary, the substitution is
accessed often, so changing it is not desirable, nor generally useful.)

<h4 class="subsection">4.4.2 TCX files: Character translations</h4>
<a name="index-TCX-character-translation-files"></a>
<a name="index-_002etcx-character-translation-files-1"></a>
<a name="index-character-translation-files"></a>
<a name="index-international-characters"></a>
<a name="index-8_002dbit-characters"></a>
<a name="index-accented-character"></a>
<p>TCX (TeX character translation) files help TeX support direct
input of 8-bit international characters if fonts containing those
characters are being used. Specifically, they map an input (keyboard)
character code to the internal TeX character code (a superset of
ASCII).
</p>
<p>Of the various proposals for handling more than one input encoding,
TCX files were chosen because they follow Knuth’s original ideas for
the use of the ‘<samp>xchr</samp>’ and ‘<samp>xord</samp>’ tables. He ventured that
these would be changed in the WEB source in order to adjust the actual
version to a given environment. It turns out, however, that
recompiling the WEB sources is not as simple a task as Knuth may have
imagined; therefore, TCX files, providing the possibility of changing
of the conversion tables on on-the-fly, have been implemented instead.
</p>
<p>This approach limits the portability of TeX documents, as some
implementations do not support it (or use a different method for
input-internal reencoding). It may also be problematic to determine
the encoding to use for a TeX document of unknown provenance; in
the worst case, failure to do so correctly may result in subtle errors
in the typeset output. But we feel the benefits outweigh these
disadvantages.
</p>
<p>This is entirely independent of the MLTeX extension (see <a href="#MLTeX">MLTeX</a>):
whereas a TCX file defines how an input keyboard character is mapped to
TeX’s internal code, MLTeX defines substitutions for a
non-existing character glyph in a font with a <code>\accent</code>
construction made out of two separate character glyphs. TCX files
involve no new primitives; it is not possible to specify
that an input (keyboard) character maps to more than one character.
</p>
<a name="index-WEB2C_002c-search-path-for-TCX-files"></a>
<p>Information on specifying TCX files:
</p>
<ul>
<li> The best way to specify a TCX file is to list it explicitly in the
first line of the main document:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">%& -translate-file=<var>tcxfile</var>
</pre></div>
</li><li> You can also specify a TCX file to be used on a particular TeX run
with the command-line option ‘<samp>-translate-file=<var>tcxfile</var></samp>’.
</li><li> TCX files are searched for along the <code>WEB2C</code> path.
</li><li> Initial TeX (see <a href="#Initial-TeX">Initial TeX</a>) ignores TCX files.
</li></ul>
<a name="index-il1_002dt1_002etcx"></a>
<a name="index-il2_002dt1_002etcx"></a>
<a name="index-empty_002etcx"></a>
<a name="index-Cork-encoding-and-ISO-input"></a>
<a name="index-T1-encoding-and-ISO-input"></a>
<p>The Web2c distribution comes with a number of TCX files. Two
important ones are <samp>il1-t1.tcx</samp> and <samp>il2-t1.tcx</samp>, which
support ISO Latin 1 and ISO Latin 2, respectively, with Cork-encoded
fonts (a.k.a. the LaTeX T1 encoding). TCX files for Czech,
Polish, and Slovak are also provided.
</p>
<p>One other notable TCX file is <samp>empty.tcx</samp>, which is, well,
empty. Its purpose is to reset Web2C’s behavior to the default (only
visible ASCII being printable, as described below) when a format was
dumped with another TCX being active—which is in fact the case for
everything but plain TeX in the TeX Live and other distributions.
Thus:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">latex somefile8.tex
⇒ terminal etc. output with 8-bit chars
latex --translate-file=empty.tcx somefile8.tex
⇒ terminal etc. output with ^^ notation
</pre></div>
<a name="index-syntax-of-TCX-files"></a>
<p>Syntax of TCX files:
</p><ol>
<li> <a name="index-blank-lines_002c-in-TCX-files"></a>
Line-oriented. Blank lines are ignored.
</li><li> <a name="index-whitespace_002c-in-TCX-files"></a>
Whitespace is ignored except as a separator.
</li><li> <a name="index-comments_002c-in-TCX-files"></a>
Comments start with ‘<samp>%</samp>’ and continue to the end of the line.
</li><li> Otherwise, a line consists of one or two character codes, optionally
followed by 0 or 1. The last number indicates whether <var>dest</var> is
considered printable.
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"><var>src</var> [<var>dest</var> [<var>prnt</var>]]
</pre></div>
</li><li> <a name="index-character-codes_002c-in-TCX-files"></a>
<a name="index-octal-character-codes_002c-in-TCX-files"></a>
<a name="index-hex-character-codes_002c-in-TCX-files"></a>
<a name="index-decimal-character-codes_002c-in-TCX-files"></a>
Each character code may be specified in octal with a leading ‘<samp>0</samp>’,
hexadecimal with a leading ‘<samp>0x</samp>’, or decimal otherwise. Values must
be between 0 and 255, inclusive (decimal).
</li><li> If the <var>dest</var> code is not specified, it is taken to be the same as
<var>src</var>.
</li><li> If the same <var>src</var> code is specified more than once, it is the last
definition that counts.
</li></ol>
<a name="index-printable-characters_002c-specifying"></a>
<a name="index-_005e_005e-notation_002c-avoiding"></a>
<p>Finally, here’s what happens: when TeX sees an input character with
code <var>src</var>, it 1) changes <var>src</var> to <var>dest</var>; and 2) makes the
<var>dest</var> code “printable”, i.e., printed as-is in diagnostics and the
log file rather than in ‘<samp>^^</samp>’ notation.
</p>
<p>By default, no characters are translated, and character codes between 32
and 126 inclusive (decimal) are printable.
</p>
<p>Specifying translations for the printable ASCII characters (codes
32–127) will yield unpredictable results. Additionally you shouldn’t
make the following characters printable: <code>^^I</code> (TAB), <code>^^J</code>
(line feed), <code>^^M</code> (carriage return), and <code>^^?</code> (delete),
since TeX uses them in various ways.
</p>
<a name="index-font-character-code_002c-translating"></a>
<a name="index-keyboard-character-code_002c-translating"></a>
<p>Thus, the idea is to specify the input (keyboard) character code for
<var>src</var>, and the output (font) character code for <var>dest</var>.
</p>
<a name="index-interaction-between-TCX-files-and-_002d8bit_002e"></a>
<p>By default, only the printable ASCII characters are considered printable
by TeX. If you specify the ‘<samp>-8bit</samp>’ option, all characters are
considered printable by default. If you specify both the ‘<samp>-8bit</samp>’
option and a TCX file, then the TCX can set specific characters to be
non-printable.
</p>
<p>Both the specified TCX encoding and whether characters are printable
are saved in the dump files (like <samp>tex.fmt</samp>). So by giving these
options in combination with ‘<samp>-ini</samp>’, you control the defaults seen
by anyone who uses the resulting dump file.
</p>
<p>When loading a dump, if the ‘<samp>-8bit</samp>’ option was given, then all
characters become printable by default.
</p>
<p>When loading a dump, if a TCX file was specified, then the TCX data from
the dump is ignored and the data from the file used instead.

<a name="index-system-C-library-function"></a>
<p>TeX can execute <em>shell escapes</em>, that is, arbitrary shell
commands. Although tremendously useful, this also has obvious
security implications. Therefore, as of TeX Live 2009, a
<em>restricted</em> mode for shell escapes is the default mode of
operation, which allows executing only certain commands, as specified
in the <samp>texmf.cnf</samp> configuration file.
</p>
<ul>
<li> Unrestricted shell escapes are allowed if the option
<samp>--shell-escape</samp> is specified, or if the environment variable
or config file value <code>shell_escape</code> is set to ‘<samp>t</samp>’ or
‘<samp>y</samp>’ and ‘<samp>1</samp>’.
</li><li> Restricted shell escapes are allowed if <code>shell_escape</code> is set to
‘<samp>p</samp>’. This is the default.
</li><li> Shell escapes are completely disabled if <samp>--no-shell-escape</samp> is
specified, or if <code>shell_escape</code> is set to anything else.
</li></ul>
<p>When enabled, the TeX construct to execute a system command is
<code>\write18{<var>shell-command</var>}</code>; for example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">\write18{echo "hello, world"}
</pre></div>
<a name="index-_005coutput-routine_002c-and-_005cwrite"></a>
<p>From TeX’s point of view, this is a normal <code>\write</code> command,
and is therefore subject to the usual TeX expansions. Also, the
system call either happens during the ‘<samp>\output</samp>’ routine or right
away, according to the absence or presence of the <code>\immediate</code>
prefix, as usual for <code>\write</code>.
</p>
<a name="index-exit-status_002c-of-shell-escape"></a>
<p>The <var>shell-command</var> string is passed to the command shell (via the
C library function <code>system</code>). The output of <var>shell-command</var>
is not diverted anywhere, so it will not appear in the log file, or
anywhere but the terminal output. The exit status of the system call
is also not available to TeX.
</p>
<p>In unrestricted mode, the argument is simply passed straight to
<code>system</code> unaltered.
</p>
<p>In restricted mode, ASCII double quote characters (<tt>"</tt>) should
always be used in the argument to <code>\write18</code> where quoting of
arguments is needed, as in the example above. This is to achieve some
measure of system independence. On Unix systems, these are replaced
with single quote (<tt>'</tt>) characters to avoid insecure further
expansion. Care is also taken on Windows to avoid additional
expansions (from, e.g., <tt>`...`</tt>). Mismatched quotation marks
in the command string result in a diagnostic message in the log file;
no execution is performed.
</p>
<a name="index-shell_005fescape_005fcommands"></a>
<p>After quotation processing, if the first word (delimited by a space or
tab) of the command is in the list specified by the
<code>shell_escape_commands</code> configuration value, the command is
executed. Otherwise it is not. In any case, a message is written to
the log file.
</p>
<p>The <code>shell_escape_commands</code> value is a comma-separated list of
words. Whitespace is significant, and typically should not be
present. The default definition looks like this, but with more
commands included:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">shell_escape_commands = bibtex,dvips,epstopdf,...,tex
</pre></div>

<a name="index-_005copenout_002c-and-pipes"></a>
<a name="index-_005cpdfshellescape"></a>
<p>pdfTeX and luaTeX support reading (via <code>\input</code> and
<code>\openin</code>) and writing (via <code>\openout</code>) from pipes if the
first character is ‘<samp>|</samp>’. The following command is then treated
exactly the same as the argument to <code>\write18</code>. In these
engines, the primitive variable <code>\pdfshellescape</code> is set to 0 if
shell escapes are disabled, 1 if they are enabled, and 2 if they are
enabled with restrictions.
</p>
<a name="index-web-environments_002c-and-security"></a>
<p>The purpose of this feature is to make it possible for TeX
documents to perform useful external actions in the common case of an
individual user running a known document on his or her own machine.
In such environments as CGI scripts or wikis where the input has to be
considered untrustworthy, shell escapes should be completely disabled.

<p>Metafont is a system for producing shapes; it was designed for producing
complete typeface families, but it can also produce geometric designs,
dingbats, etc. And it has considerable mathematical and
equation-solving capabilities which can be useful entirely on their own.
</p>
<p>Metafont is a batch language, like C or Pascal: you compile a Metafont
program into a corresponding font, rather than interactively drawing
lines or curves. This approach has both considerable disadvantages
(people unfamiliar with conventional programming languages will be
unlikely to find it usable) and considerable advantages (you can make
your design intentions specific and parameterizable). For a complete
description of the Metafont language, see <cite>The METAFONTbook</cite>
(see <a href="#References">References</a>).

<h3 class="section">5.1 <code>mf</code> invocation</h3>
<a name="index-mf"></a>
<a name="index-Metafont-invocation"></a>
<p>Metafont (usually invoked as <code>mf</code>) reads character definitions
specified in the Metafont programming language, and outputs the
corresponding font. This section merely describes the options available
in the Web2c implementation. For a complete description of the Metafont
language, see <cite>The Metafontbook</cite> (see <a href="#References">References</a>).
</p>
<p>Metafont processes its command line and determines its memory dump
(base) file in a way exactly analogous to MetaPost and TeX
(see <a href="#tex-invocation">tex invocation</a>, and see <a href="#Memory-dumps">Memory dumps</a>). Synopses:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">mf [<var>option</var>]… [<var>mfname</var>[.mf]] [<var>mf-commands</var>]
mf [<var>option</var>]… \<var>first-line</var>
mf [<var>option</var>]… &<var>base</var> <var>args</var>
</pre></div>
<p>Most commonly, a Metafont invocation looks like this:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">mf '\mode:=<var>mode</var>; mag:=<var>magnification</var>; input <var>mfname</var>'
</pre></div>
<p>(The single quotes avoid unwanted interpretation by the shell.)

<a name="index-Metafont-input-files"></a>
<a name="index-EC-fonts-1"></a>
<a name="index-mktexmf_002c-disabling"></a>
<p>Metafont searches the usual places for the main input file <var>mfname</var>
(see <a href="kpathsea.html#Supported-file-formats">Supported file formats</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>), extending
<var>mfname</var> with <samp>.mf</samp> if necessary. To see all the relevant
paths, set the environment variable <code>KPATHSEA_DEBUG</code> to ‘<samp>-1</samp>’
before running the program. By default, Metafont runs an external
program named <samp>mktexmf</samp> to create any nonexistent Metafont source
files you input. You can disable this at configure-time or runtime
(see <a href="kpathsea.html#mktex-configuration">mktex configuration</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). This is mostly
for the sake of the EC fonts, which can be generated at any size.

<a name="index-GF-files_002c-output-by-Metafont"></a>
<a name="index-PK-files_002c-not-output-by-Metafont"></a>
<p>Metafont writes the main GF output to the file
<samp><var>basemfname</var>.<var>nnn</var>gf</samp>, where <var>nnn</var> is the font
resolution in pixels per inch, and <var>basemfname</var> is the basename of
<var>mfname</var>, or ‘<samp>mfput</samp>’ if no input file was specified. A GF file
contains bitmaps of the actual character shapes. Usually GF files are
converted immediately to PK files with GFtoPK (see <a href="#gftopk-invocation">gftopk invocation</a>), since PK files contain equivalent information, but are
more compact. (Metafont output in GF format rather than PK for only
historical reasons.)
</p>
<a name="index-_002etfm-output"></a>
<a name="index-TFM-files_002c-output-by-Metafont"></a>
<p>Metafont also usually writes a metric file in TFM format to
<samp><var>basemfname</var>.tfm</samp>. A TFM file contains character dimensions,
kerns, and ligatures, and spacing parameters. TeX reads only this
<tt>.tfm</tt> file, not the GF file.

<a name="index-proof-mode"></a>
<a name="index-2602gf"></a>
<a name="index-_002e2602gf"></a>
<p>The <var>mode</var> in the example command above is a name referring to a
device definition (see <a href="#Modes">Modes</a>); for example, <code>localfont</code> or
<code>ljfour</code>. These device definitions must generally be precompiled
into the base file. If you leave this out, the default is <code>proof</code>
mode, as stated in <cite>The Metafontbook</cite>, in which Metafont outputs at
a resolution of 2602dpi; this is usually not what you want. The
remedy is simply to assign a different mode—<code>localfont</code>, for
example.
</p>
<p>The <var>magnification</var> assignment in the example command above is a
magnification factor; for example, if the device is 600dpi and you
specify <code>mag:=2</code>, Metafont will produce output at 1200dpi.
Very often, the <var>magnification</var> is an expression such as
<code>magstep(.5)</code>, corresponding to a TeX “magstep”, which are
factors of
</p>
<p>After running Metafont, you can use the font in a TeX document as
usual. For example:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\font\myfont = newfont
\myfont Now I am typesetting in my new font (minimum hamburgers).
</pre></div>
<p>The program accepts the following options, as well as the standard
‘<samp>-help</samp>’ and ‘<samp>-version</samp>’ (see <a href="#Common-options">Common options</a>):

<p><code>inimf</code> is the “initial” form of Metafont, which does lengthy
initializations avoided by the “virgin” (<code>vir</code>) form, so as to
be capable of dumping ‘<samp>.base</samp>’ files (see <a href="#Memory-dumps">Memory dumps</a>). For
a detailed comparison of virgin and initial forms, see <a href="#Initial-and-virgin">Initial and virgin</a>.

<a name="index-plain_002ebase"></a>
<a name="index-mf_002ebase"></a>
<p>The only memory dump file commonly used with Metafont is the default
‘<samp>plain.base</samp>’, also known as ‘<samp>mf.base</samp>’ (again, see <a href="#Memory-dumps">Memory dumps</a>). It is created by default during installation, but you can also
do so by hand if necessary (e.g., if a Metafont update is issued):
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">mf -ini '\input plain; input modes; dump'
</pre></div>
<p>(The quotes prevent interpretation of the backslashes from the shell.)
Then install the resulting <samp>plain.base</samp> in ‘<samp>$(basedir)</samp>’
(<samp>/usr/local/share/texmf/web2c</samp> by default), and link
<samp>mf.base</samp> to it.

<p>In the past, it was sometimes useful to create a base file
<samp>cmmf.base</samp> (a.k.a. <samp>cm.base</samp>), with the Computer Modern
macros also included in the base file. Nowadays, however, the
additional time required to read <samp>cmbase.mf</samp> is exceedingly small,
usually not enough to be worth the administrative hassle of updating the
<samp>cmmf.base</samp> file when you install a new version of <samp>modes.mf</samp>.

People actually working on a typeface may still find it worthwhile to
create their own base file, of course.

<a name="index-device-definitions_002c-for-Metafont"></a>
<a name="index-printer-characteristics_002c-for-Metafont"></a>
<p>Running Metafont and creating Metafont base files requires information
that TeX and MetaPost do not: <em>mode</em> definitions which specify
device characteristics, so Metafont can properly rasterize the shapes.
</p>
<a name="index-modes_002emf-recommended-modes-file"></a>
<p>When making a base file, a file containing modes for locally-available
devices should be input after <samp>plain.mf</samp>. One commonly used file
is <a href="ftp://ftp.tug.org/tex/modes.mf">ftp://ftp.tug.org/tex/modes.mf</a>; it includes all known
definitions.
</p>
<a name="index-small-Metafont-memory-and-modes"></a>
<a name="index-mode_005fdef"></a>
<a name="index-mode_005fsetup"></a>
<p>If, however, for some reason you have decreased the memory available in
your Metafont, you may need to copy <samp>modes.mf</samp> and remove the
definitions irrelevant to you (probably most of them) instead of using
it directly. (Or, if you’re a Metafont hacker, maybe you can suggest a
way to redefine <code>mode_def</code> and/or <code>mode_setup</code>; right now, the
amount of memory used is approximately four times the total length of
the <code>mode_def</code> names, and that’s a lot.)
</p>
<p>If you have a device not included in <samp>modes.mf</samp>, please see
comments in that file for how to create the new definition, and please
send the definition to <a href="mailto:tex-fonts@math.utah.edu">tex-fonts@math.utah.edu</a> to get it included
in the next release of <samp>modes.mf</samp>.
</p>
<a name="index-smode-and-dynamic-Metafont-mode-definition"></a>
<a name="index-dynamic-Metafont-mode-definitions-with-smode"></a>
<p>Usually, when you run Metafont you must supply the name of a mode that
was dumped in the base file. But you can also define the mode
characteristics dynamically, by invoking Metafont with an assignment to
<code>smode</code> instead of <code>mode</code>, like this:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">mf '\smode:="newmode.mf"; mag:=<var>magnification</var>; input <var>mfname</var>'
</pre></div>
<p>This is most useful when you are working on the definition of a new
mode.
</p>
<p>The <var>magnification</var> and <var>mfname</var> arguments are explained in
<a href="#mf-invocation">mf invocation</a>. In the file <samp>newmode.mf</samp>, you should have the
following (with no <code>mode_def</code> or <code>enddef</code>), if you are using
<samp>modes.mf</samp> conventions:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">mode_param (pixels_per_inch, <var>dpi</var>);
mode_param (blacker, <var>b</var>);
mode_param (fillin, <var>f</var>);
mode_param (o_correction, <var>o</var>);
mode_common_setup_;
</pre></div>
<p>(Of course, you should use real numbers for <var>dpi</var>, <var>b</var>, <var>f</var>,
and <var>o</var>.)

<p>GFtoDVI makes <em>proof sheets</em> from a GF bitmap file as output by, for
example, Metafont (see <a href="#Metafont">Metafont</a>). This is an indispensable aid for
font designers or Metafont hackers. Synopsis:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">gftodvi [<var>option</var>]… <var>gfname</var>[gf]
</pre></div>
<p>The font <var>gfname</var> is searched for in the usual places (see <a href="kpathsea.html#Glyph-lookup">Glyph
lookup</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). To see all the relevant paths, set the
environment variable <code>KPATHSEA_DEBUG</code> to ‘<samp>-1</samp>’ before running
the program.
</p>
<p>The suffix ‘<samp>gf</samp>’ is supplied if not already present. This suffix is
not an extension, no ‘<samp>.</samp>’ precedes it; for instance, <samp>cmr10.600gf</samp>.
</p>
<p>The output filename is the basename of <var>gfname</var> extended with
<samp>.dvi</samp>, e.g., ‘<samp>gftodvi /wherever/foo.600gf</samp>’ creates
<samp>./foo.dvi</samp>.
</p>
<p>The characters from <var>gfname</var> appear one per page in the DVI output,
with labels, titles, and annotations, as specified in Appendix H
(Hardcopy Proofs) of <cite>The Metafontbook</cite>.
</p>
<p>GFtoDVI uses several fonts besides <var>gfname</var> itself:
</p>
<ul>
<li> <a name="index-gray-font"></a>
<em>gray font</em> (default <samp>gray</samp>): for the pixels that actually make
up the character. Simply using black is not right, since then labels,
key points, and other information could not be shown.
</li><li> <a name="index-title-font"></a>
<em>title font</em> (default <samp>cmr8</samp>): for the header information at
the top of each output page.
</li><li> <a name="index-label-font"></a>
<em>label font</em> (default <samp>cmtt10</samp>): for the labels on key points
of the figure.
</li><li> <a name="index-slant-font"></a>
<em>slant font</em> (no default): for diagonal lines, which are otherwise
simulated using horizontal and vertical rules.
</li></ul>
<p>To change the default fonts, you must use <code>special</code> commands in
your Metafont source file, typically via commands like <code>slantfont
slantlj4</code>. There is no default slant font since no one printer is
suitable as a default. You can make your own by copying one of the
existing files, such as
<samp>.../fonts/source/public/misc/slantlj4.mf</samp> and then running
<code>mf</code> on it.
</p>
<p>For testing purposes, you may it useful to run <code>mf-nowin rtest</code>
(hit RETURN when it stops) to get a <samp>gf</samp> file of a thorn glyph.
Or use <code>mf</code> instead of <code>mf-nowin</code> to have the glyph(s)
displayed on the screen. After that, <code>gftodvi rtest.2602gf</code>
should produce <samp>rtest.dvi</samp>, which you process as usual.
</p>
<p>The program accepts the following option, as well as the standard
‘<samp>-verbose</samp>’, ‘<samp>-help</samp>’, and ‘<samp>-version</samp>’ (see <a href="#Common-options">Common options</a>):
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt>‘<samp>-overflow-label-offset=<var>points</var></samp>’</dt>
<dd><a name="index-_002doverflow_002dlabel_002doffset_003dpoints"></a>
<a name="index-overflow-label-offset"></a>
<a name="index-offset-for-overflow-labels"></a>
<p>Typeset the so-called overflow labels, if any, <var>points</var> TeX
points from the right edge of the character bounding box. The default
is a little over two inches (ten million scaled points, to be precise).
Overflow equations are used to locate coordinates when their actual
position is too crowded with other information.

<a name="index-TeX_002c-creating-from-Metafont"></a>
<a name="index-mftmac_002etex"></a>
<p>MFT translates a Metafont program into a TeX document suitable for
typesetting, with the aid of TeX macros defined in the file
<samp>mftmac.tex</samp>. Synopsis:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">mft [<var>option</var>]… <var>mfname</var>[.mf]
</pre></div>
<p>MFT searches the usual places for <var>mfname</var> (see <a href="kpathsea.html#Supported-file-formats">Supported file
formats</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). To see all the relevant paths, set the
environment variable <code>KPATHSEA_DEBUG</code> to ‘<samp>-1</samp>’ before running
the program. The output goes to the basename of <var>mfname</var> extended
with <samp>.tex</samp>, e.g., ‘<samp>mft /wherever/foo.mf</samp>’ creates
<samp>./foo.tex</samp>.
</p>
<p>Line breaks in the input are carried over into the output; moreover,
blank spaces at the beginning of a line are converted to quads of
indentation in the output. Thus, you have full control over the
indentation and line breaks. Each line of input is translated
independently of the others.
</p>
<p>Further control is allowed via Metafont comments:
<a name="index-comments_002c-MFT-control"></a>
</p><ul>
<li> Metafont comments following a single ‘<samp>%</samp>’ should be valid TeX
input. But Metafont material can be included within vertical bars in a
comment; this will be translated by MFT as if it were regular Metafont
code. For example, a comment like ‘<samp>% |x2r| is the tip of the bowl</samp>’
will be translated into the TeX ‘<samp>% $x_{2r}$ is the …</samp>’,
i.e., the ‘<samp>x2r</samp>’ is treated as an identifier.
</li><li> ‘<samp>%%</samp>’ indicates that the remainder of an input line should be copied
verbatim to the output. This is typically used to introduce additional
TeX material at the beginning or an MFT job, e.g. code to modify the
standard layout or the formatting macros defined in <samp>mftmac.tex</samp>,
or to add a line saying ‘<samp>%%\bye</samp>’ at the end of the job. (MFT
doesn’t add this automatically in order to allow processing several
files produces by MFT in the same TeX job.)
</li><li> ‘<samp>%%% <var>token1</var> <var>other-tokens</var></samp>’
introduces a change in MFT’s formatting rules; all the <var>other-tokens</var>
will henceforth be translated according to the current conventions for
<var>token1</var>. The tokens must be symbolic (i.e., not
numeric or string tokens). For example, the input line
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">%%% addto fill draw filldraw
</pre></div>
<p>says to format the ‘<samp>fill</samp>’, ‘<samp>draw</samp>’, and ‘<samp>filldraw</samp>’
operations of plain Metafont just like the primitive token ‘<samp>addto</samp>’,
i.e., in boldface type. Without such reformatting commands, MFT would
treat ‘<samp>fill</samp>’ like an ordinary tag or variable name. In fact, you
need a ‘<samp>%%%</samp>’ command even to get parentheses to act like
delimiters.
</p>
</li><li> ‘<samp>%%%%</samp>’ introduces an MFT comment, i.e., MFT ignores the remainder
of such a line.
</li><li> Five or more ‘<samp>%</samp>’ signs should not be used.
</li></ul>

<p>MetaPost is a picture-drawing language similar to Metafont
(see <a href="#Metafont">Metafont</a>), but instead of outputting bitmaps in a “font”, it
outputs PostScript commands. It’s primarily intended for creating
technical illustrations.
</p>
<p>MetaPost also provides for arbitrary integration of text and graphics in
a natural way, using any typesetter (TeX and Troff are both
supported) and a number of other subsidiary programs, described below.

<p>MetaPost (installed as <code>mpost</code>) reads a series of pictures
specified in the MetaPost programming language, and outputs
corresponding PostScript code. This section merely describes the
options available in the Web2c implementation. For a complete
description of the MetaPost language, see AT&T technical report
CSTR-162, generally available in <samp><var>texmf</var>/doc/metapost/</samp>,

<p>Also, a standard MetaPost package for drawing graphs is documented in
AT&T technical report CSTR-164, available as the file <samp>mpgraph.ps</samp>,
generally stored alongside <samp>mpman.ps</samp>.
</p>
<p>MetaPost processes its command line and determines its memory dump (mem)
file in a way exactly analogous to Metafont and TeX (see <a href="#tex-invocation"><code>tex</code> invocation</a>, and see <a href="#Memory-dumps">Memory dumps</a>).

<a name="index-mpout"></a>
<a name="index-TFM-files_002c-output-by-MetaPost"></a>
<a name="index-PostScript-output"></a>
<p>MetaPost writes its PostScript output to a series of files
<samp><var>basempname</var>.<var>nnn</var></samp> (or perhaps
<samp><var>basempname</var>.ps</samp>, very occasionally
<samp><var>basempname</var>.tfm</samp>), where <var>nnn</var> are the figure numbers
specified in the input, typically to the <code>beginfig</code> macro, and
<var>basempname</var> is the basename of <var>mpname</var>, or ‘<samp>mpout</samp>’ if no
input file was specified. MetaPost uses the ‘<samp>.ps</samp>’ extension when
the figure number is out of range, e.g., if you say <code>beginfig(-1)</code>.
</p>
<p>You can use the output files as figures in a TeX document just as
with any other PostScript figures. For example, with this TeX command:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">\special{psfile="<var>filename</var>"}
</pre></div>
<p>or by using <samp>epsf.tex</samp> (see <a href="dvips.html#EPSF-macros">EPSF macros</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>).
</p>
<a name="index-btex-for-MetaPost-labels"></a>
<a name="index-etex-for-MetaPost-labels"></a>
<p>The MetaPost construct
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">btex … <var>tex-input</var> … etex
</pre></div>
<p>generates a MetaPost picture expression corresponding to
<var>tex-input</var>.
</p>
<p>The construct
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">verbatimtex … <var>tex-input</var> … etex
</pre></div>
<p>simply passes the <var>tex-input</var> through to
TeX. For example, if you are using LaTeX, your MetaPost input file
must start with a <code>verbatimtex</code> block that gives the necessary
<code>\documentclass</code> (or <code>\documentstyle</code>)
<code>\begin{document}</code> command. You will also need to set the
enviroment variable <code>TEX</code> to ‘<samp>latex</samp>’.
</p>
<p><var>tex-input</var> need not be specifically TeX input; it could also be
Troff. In that case, you will need the ‘<samp>-m pictures</samp>’ Troff macro
package (unfortunately absent from many Troff implementations), or an
equivalent such as the ‘<samp>-m pspic</samp>’ macros from GNU groff described
in grops(1).

<a name="index-Troff_002c-and-MetaPost"></a>
<a name="index-Computer-Modern-fonts_002c-and-Troff"></a>
<p>Naturally, you must use fonts that are supported by the typesetter;
specifically, you’ll probably want to use standard PostScript fonts with
Troff. And only the TeX system understands Computer Modern or other
Metafont fonts; you can also use PostScript fonts with TeX, of course.

<a name="index-mproof_002etex"></a>
<a name="index-downloading-of-fonts-for-MetaPost-labels"></a>
<a name="index-font-downloading-for-MetaPost-labels"></a>
<p>MetaPost-generated PostScript figures which do use Computer Modern fonts
for labels cannot be directly previewed or printed. Instead, you must
include them in a TeX document and run the resulting DVI file through
Dvips to arrange for the downloading of the required fonts (see <a href="dvips.html#Fonts-in-figures">Fonts
in figures</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>). To help with this, the MetaPost
distribution provides a small TeX file <samp>mproof.tex</samp> which is
typically called as:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">tex mproof <var>mp-output-files</var>... ; dvips mproof -o
</pre></div>
<p>The resulting file <samp>mproof.ps</samp> can then be printed or previewed.

<a name="index-prologues_002c-and-EPSF-output"></a>
<a name="index-psfonts_002emap_002c-read-by-MetaPost"></a>
<p>To generate EPSF files, set the internal MetaPost variable
<code>prologues</code> positive. To make the output files self-contained, use
only standard PostScript fonts. MetaPost reads the same
<samp>psfonts.map</samp> file as Dvips, to determine PostScript fonts that
need to be downloaded (see <a href="dvips.html#psfonts_002emap">psfonts.map</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>).
</p>
<a name="index-PDF_002c-and-_002emps-files"></a>
<a name="index-_002emps-files-and-PDF"></a>
<p>It is posible for pdfTeX to read MetaPost output directly; this is
in contrast to general EPSF files, which have to be converted for use
with PDF output. The easiest way is to name the MetaPost output files
with the <code>.mps</code> extension. Then the LaTeX
<code>\includegraphics</code> command, for example, will be able to read
them, even when outputting PDF.
</p>
<a name="index-security_002c-and-write"></a>
<p>MetaPost can write output files, via the <code>write</code> primitive; this
opens a security hole. See <a href="#tex-invocation">tex invocation</a>.

<samp>.mem</samp> files (see <a href="#Memory-dumps">Memory dumps</a>) and does not distinguish
virgin and initial forms (see <a href="#Initial-and-virgin">Initial and virgin</a>). Instead, the

process Metafont source files with MetaPost, producing character
proofs (one file for each character) similar to those produced with

<p>BibTeX creates a printable bibliography (<samp>.bbl</samp>) file from
references in a <samp>.aux</samp> file, generally written by TeX or
LaTeX. The <samp>.bbl</samp> file is then incorporated on a subsequent
run. The basic bibliographic information comes from <samp>.bib</samp> files,
and a BibTeX style (<samp>.bst</samp>) file controls the precise contents
of the <samp>.bbl</samp> file. Synopsis:

<p>The names of the <samp>.bib</samp> and <samp>.bst</samp> files are specified in the

<p><em>WEB</em> languages allow you to write a single source file that can
produce both a compilable program and a well-formatted document
describing the program in as much detail as you wish to prepare.
Writing in this kind of dual-purpose language is called <em>literate
programming</em>. (The Usenet newsgroup <samp>comp.programming.literate</samp>
is devoted to this subject.)

<a name="index-Ada_002c-WEB-for"></a>
<a name="index-Troff_002c-WEB-for"></a>
<p>WEB-like languages have been implemented with many pairs of base
languages: Cweb provides C and Troff (see <a href="#References">References</a>); CWEB provides
C and TeX (<samp><var>CTAN:</var>/web/c_cpp/cweb</samp>); Spiderweb provides C,
C++, Awk, Ada, many others, and TeX
(<samp><var>CTAN:</var>/web/spiderweb</samp>); and, of course, the original WEB
provides Pascal and TeX, the implementation languages for the
original TeX, Metafont, MetaPost, and related programs to come from
the TeX project at Stanford.
</p>
<p>The original WEB language is documented in the file <samp>webman.tex</samp>,
which is included in the <a href="ftp://ftp.tug.org/tex/lib.tar.gz">ftp://ftp.tug.org/tex/lib.tar.gz</a> archive
(and available in many other places, of course).

<a name="index-tangle"></a>
<a name="index-Pascal_002c-creating-from-WEB"></a>
<a name="index-WEB-programs_002c-compiling"></a>
<p>Tangle creates a compilable Pascal program from a WEB source file
(see <a href="#WEB">WEB</a>). Synopsis:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">tangle [<var>option</var>]… <var>webfile</var>[.web] [<var>changefile</var>[.ch]]
</pre></div>
<a name="index-change-files_002c-and-Tangle"></a>
<p>The Pascal output is written to the basename of <var>webfile</var> extended
with ‘<samp>.p</samp>’; for example, ‘<samp>tangle /wherever/foo.web</samp>’ creates
<samp>./foo.p</samp>. Tangle applies <var>changefile</var> to <var>webfile</var> before
writing the output; by default, there is no change file.
</p>
<a name="index-pool-file_002c-writing"></a>
<a name="index-string-pool_002c-writing"></a>
<p>If the program makes use of the WEB string facility, Tangle writes the
string pool to the basename of <var>webfile</var> extended with ‘<samp>.pool</samp>’.
</p>
<p>The Pascal output is packed into lines of 72 characters or less, with
the only concession to readability being the termination of lines at
semicolons when this can be done conveniently.
</p>
<p>The program accepts the following options, as well as the standard
‘<samp>--help</samp>’ and ‘<samp>--version</samp>’ (see <a href="#Common-options">Common options</a>):
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt>‘<samp>-length=<var>number</var></samp>’</dt>
<dd><a name="index-_002dlength_003dnumber"></a>
<a name="index-identifier-length"></a>
<p>The number of characters that are considered significant in an
identifier. Whether underline characters are counted depends on the
‘<samp>-underline</samp>’ option. The default value is 32, the original tangle
used 7, but this proved too restrictive for use by Web2c.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp>-lowercase</samp>’</dt>
<dt>‘<samp>-mixedcase</samp>’</dt>
<dt>‘<samp>-uppercase</samp>’</dt>

<a name="index-_002dmixedcase"></a>
<a name="index-_002duppercase"></a>
<a name="index-identifier-case"></a>
<p>These options specify the case of identifiers in the output of tangle.
If ‘<samp>-uppercase</samp>’ (‘<samp>-lowercase</samp>’) is specified, tangle will
convert all identfiers to uppercase (lowercase). The default is
‘<samp>-mixedcase</samp>’, which specifies that the case will not be changed.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp>-underline</samp>’</dt>
<dd><a name="index-_002dunderline"></a>
<a name="index-identifiers-with-underlines"></a>
<p>When this option is given, tangle does not strip underline characters
from identifiers.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp>-loose</samp>’</dt>
<dt>‘<samp>-strict</samp>’</dt>
<dd><a name="index-_002dloose"></a>
<a name="index-_002dstrict"></a>
<a name="index-identifier-collisions"></a>
<p>These options specify how strict tangle must be when checking
identifiers for equality. The default is ‘<samp>-loose</samp>’, which means
that tangle will follow the rules set by the case-smashing and underline
options above. If ‘<samp>-strict</samp>’ is set, then identifiers will always
be stripped of underlines and converted to uppercase before checking
whether they collide.

</dl>
<p>Conventionally, WEB programmers should define the TeX <code>\title</code>
macro at the beginning of the source file. Also, to get output of only

first change in the change file).

<p>DVItype translates a DeVice Independent (DVI) file (as output by TeX,

as a DVI-validating program, i.e., if DVItype can read a file, it’s
correct. Synopsis:

<h3 class="section">10.1 Font file formats</h3>
<a name="index-font-file-formats"></a>
<a name="index-file-formats-for-fonts"></a>
<p>(For another perspective on this, see <a href="dvips.html#Font-concepts">Font concepts</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>).
</p>
<p>Font files come in several varieties, with suffixes like:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">.tfm .*pk .*gf .*pxl<span class="roman"> (obsolete)</span> .pl .mf .vf .vpl
</pre></div>
<p>Each represents a file format.
</p>
<a name="index-TFM-files_002c-explained"></a>
<p>A TFM (TeX font metric) file is a compact binary file that contains
information about each character in a font, about combinations of
characters within that font, and about the font as a whole. The font
metric information contained in TFM files is device-independent units is
used by TeX to do typesetting. Unlike the bitmap (raster) fonts
described below, TFM font files contain no information about the shapes
of characters. They describe rectangular areas and combinations
thereof, but not what will eventually be printed in those areas.
</p>
<a name="index-scaling-of-fonts"></a>
<a name="index-optical-font-scaling"></a>
<a name="index-geometric-font-scaling"></a>
<a name="index-PostScript_002c-and-font-scaling"></a>
<p>Since TeX does scaling calculations, one TFM file serves for all
magnifications of a given typeface. On the other hand, the best printed
results are obtained when magnified (or reduced fonts) are not produced
geometrically (as done by PostScript, for example) but rather optically,
with each size a separate design (as done with Computer Modern and the
EC fonts, for example); then a separate TFM file is needed for each
size.
</p>
<a name="index-DVI-files_002c-explained"></a>
<p>At any rate, TeX produces a DVI (DeVice Independent) file from your
source document. In order to print DVI files on real devices, you need
font files defining digitized character shapes and other data. Then
previewers and printer-driver programs can translate your DVI files into
something usable by your monitor or printer. Bitmap fonts come with
suffixes such as ‘<samp>.600pk</samp>’ or ‘<samp>.600gf</samp>’ or ‘<samp>.3000pxl</samp>’, where
the ‘<samp>600</samp>’ is the horizontal dots-per-inch resolution at which the
font was produced, and the ‘<samp>pk</samp>’ or ‘<samp>gf</samp>’ or ‘<samp>pxl</samp>’
indicates the font format. Outline fonts in PostScript Type 1 format
have suffixes such as ‘<samp>.pfa</samp>’ or ‘<samp>.pfb</samp>’.
</p>
<a name="index-PXL-files_002c-explained"></a>
<a name="index-PK-files_002c-explained"></a>
<a name="index-GF-files_002c-explained"></a>
<p>Fonts in pk (packed) format are in the tightly packed raster format that
is pretty much the standard today. They take up less space than fonts
in the gf (generic font) format that Metafont generates, and far less
space than fonts in pxl format. Fonts in pxl format take up gross
amounts of disk space and permit only 128 characters. They are
obsolete.
</p>
<a name="index-PL-files_002c-explained"></a>
<p>Font files with the ‘<samp>.pl</samp>’ (property list) suffix are the plain text
(human-readable) analog of the binary ‘<samp>.tfm</samp>’ files.
The TFtoPL and PLtoTF programs convert between the two formats
(see <a href="#tftopl-invocation">tftopl invocation</a> and <a href="#pltotf-invocation">pltotf invocation</a>).
</p>
<p>Font files with the ‘<samp>.mf</samp>’ suffix are in Metafont source format.
These are the files used by Metafont to generate rastered fonts for
specific typefaces at specific magnifications for the specific
resolution and type of mapping used by your device.
</p>
<a name="index-virtual_002dfonts_002eknuth"></a>
<a name="index-virtualfonts_002etxt"></a>
<p>The suffix ‘<samp>.vf</samp>’ identifies “virtual font” files, for which
‘<samp>.vpl</samp>’ is the human-readable analog. See See <a href="#vftovp-invocation">vftovp invocation</a>,
and <a href="#vptovf-invocation">vptovf invocation</a>. For further discussion of virtual fonts,
see <samp><var>CTAN:</var>/doc/virtual-fonts.knuth</samp>,

<p>GFtoPK converts a generic font (GF) file output by, for example,
Metafont (see <a href="#mf-invocation">mf invocation</a>) to a packed font (PK) file. PK files
are considerably smaller than the corresponding gf files, so they are
generally the bitmap font format of choice. Some DVI-processing
programs, notably Dvips, only support PK files and not GF files.

<p>PKtoGF converts a packed font (PK) file to a generic font (GF) file.
Since PK format is much more compact than GF format, the most likely
reason to do this is to run GFtype (see <a href="#gftype-invocation">gftype invocation</a>) on the
result, so you can see the bitmap images. Also, a few old utility
programs do not support PK format. Synopsis:

<p>TFtoPL translates a TeX font metric (TFM, see <a href="dvips.html#Metric-files">Metric
files</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>) file (as output by Metafont, for example) to
<em>property list format</em> (a list of parenthesized items describing the
font) that humans can edit or read. This program is mostly used by
people debugging TeX implementations, writing font utilities, etc.
Synopsis:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">tftopl [<var>option</var>]… <var>tfmname</var>[.tfm] [<var>plfile</var>[.pl]]
</pre></div>
<p>The font <var>tfmname</var> (extended with ‘<samp>.tfm</samp>’ if necessary) is
searched for in the usual places (see <a href="kpathsea.html#Supported-file-formats">Supported file formats</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). To see all the relevant paths, set the
environment variable <code>KPATHSEA_DEBUG</code> to ‘<samp>-1</samp>’ before running
the program.
</p>
<p>If <var>plfile</var> (which is extended with ‘<samp>.pl</samp>’ if necessary) is not
specified, the property list file is written to standard output. The
property list file can be converted back to TFM format by the companion
program TFtoPL (see the next section).
</p>
<p>The program accepts the following option, as well as the standard
‘<samp>-verbose</samp>’, ‘<samp>-help</samp>’ and ‘<samp>-version</samp>’ (see <a href="#Common-options">Common options</a>):
</p><dl compact="compact">
<dt>‘<samp>-charcode-format=<var>type</var></samp>’</dt>
<dd><a name="index-_002dcharcode_002dformat_003dtype"></a>
<p>Output character codes in the PL file according to <var>type</var>: either
‘<samp>octal</samp>’ or ‘<samp>ascii</samp>’. Default is ‘<samp>ascii</samp>’ for letters and
digits, octal for all other characters. Exception: if the font’s coding
scheme starts with ‘<samp>TeX math sy</samp>’ or ‘<samp>TeX math ex</samp>’, all
character codes are output in octal.
</p>
<p>In ‘<samp>ascii</samp>’ format, character codes that correspond to graphic
characters, except for left and right parentheses, are output as a
‘<samp>C</samp>’ followed by the single character: ‘<samp>C K</samp>’, for example. In
octal format, character codes are output as the letter ‘<samp>O</samp>’ followed
by octal digits, as in ‘<samp>O 113</samp>’ for ‘<samp>K</samp>’.
</p>
<p>‘<samp>octal</samp>’ format is useful for symbol and other non-alphabetic fonts,
where using ASCII characters for the character codes is merely
confusing.

The first few items (<code>FAMILY</code>, <code>FACE</code>, and so on) are
the so-called <em>headerbyte</em> information from Metafont, giving general
information about the font.
</li><li> <a name="index-FAMILY-property-1"></a>

The <code>FONTDIMEN</code> property defines the TeX <code>\fontdimen</code>
values.

<a name="index-kerning-table_002c-in-TFM-files"></a>
<a name="index-design_002dsize-units"></a>
The <code>LIGTABLE</code> property defines the ligature and kerning table.
<code>LIG</code> properties define ligatures: in the example above, an
‘<samp>f</samp>’ (in the ‘<samp>LABEL</samp>’) followed by an ‘<samp>i</samp>’ is a ligature,
i.e., a typesetting program like TeX replaces those two consecutive
characters by the character at position octal ’014 in the current
font—presumably the ‘fi’ ligature. <code>KRN</code> properties define
kerns: if an ‘<samp>f</samp>’ is followed by character octal ’047 (an
apostrophe), TeX inserts a small amount of space between them:
0.077779 times the design size the font was loaded at (about
three-quarters of a printer’s point by default in this case, or .001
inches).
</li><li> <a name="index-CHARACTER-property"></a>
<a name="index-CHARWD-property"></a>
<a name="index-CHARHT-property"></a>
<a name="index-CHARDP-property"></a>
<a name="index-CHARIC-property"></a>
The <code>CHARACTER</code> property defines the dimensions of a character: its
width, height, depth, and italic correction, also in design-size units,
as explained in the previous item. For our example ‘f’, the depth is
zero, so that property is omitted. TFtoPL also inserts any kerns and
ligatures for this character as a comment.

<p>VFtoVP translates a virtual font metric (VF, see <a href="dvips.html#Virtual-fonts">Virtual
fonts</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>) file and its accompanying TeX font metric (TFM,
see <a href="dvips.html#Metric-files">Metric files</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>) file (as output by VPtoVF, for
example) to <em>virtual property list format</em> (a list of parenthesized
items describing the virtual font) that humans can edit or read. This
program is mostly used by people debugging virtual font utilities.
Synopsis:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">vftovp [<var>option</var>]… <var>vfname</var>[.vf] [<var>tfmname</var>[.tfm] [<var>vplfile</var>[.vpl]]]
</pre></div>
<p>The fonts <var>vfname</var> and <var>tfmname</var> (extended with ‘<samp>.vf</samp>’ and
‘<samp>.tfm</samp>’ if necessary) are searched for in the usual places
(see <a href="kpathsea.html#Supported-file-formats">Supported file formats</a> in <cite>Kpathsea</cite>). To see all the
relevant paths, set the environment variable <code>KPATHSEA_DEBUG</code> to
‘<samp>-1</samp>’ before running the program. If <var>tfmname</var> is not
specified, <var>vfname</var> (without a trailing ‘<samp>.vf</samp>’) is used.
</p>
<p>If <var>vplfile</var> (extended with ‘<samp>.vpl</samp>’ if necessary) is
not specified, the property list file is written to standard output.
The property list file can be converted back to VF and TFM format by the
companion program VFtoVP (see the next section).
</p>
<p>The program accepts the following option, as well as the standard
‘<samp>-verbose</samp>’, ‘<samp>-help</samp>’ and ‘<samp>-version</samp>’ (see <a href="#Common-options">Common options</a>):
</p><dl compact="compact">
<dt>‘<samp>-charcode-format=<var>type</var></samp>’</dt>
<dd><a name="index-_002dcharcode_002dformat_003dtype-1"></a>
<p>Output character codes in the PL file according to <var>type</var>: either
‘<samp>octal</samp>’ or ‘<samp>ascii</samp>’. Default is ‘<samp>ascii</samp>’ for letters and
digits, octal for all other characters. Exception: if the font’s coding
scheme starts with ‘<samp>TeX math sy</samp>’ or ‘<samp>TeX math ex</samp>’, all
character codes are output in octal.
</p>
<p>In ‘<samp>ascii</samp>’ format, character codes that correspond to graphic
characters, except for left and right parentheses, are output as a
‘<samp>C</samp>’ followed by the single character: ‘<samp>C K</samp>’, for example. In
octal format, character codes are output as the letter ‘<samp>O</samp>’ followed
by octal digits, as in ‘<samp>O 113</samp>’ for ‘<samp>K</samp>’.
</p>
<p>‘<samp>octal</samp>’ format is useful for symbol and other non-alphabetic fonts,
where using ASCII characters for the character codes is merely
confusing.

<a name="index-VF-files_002c-converting-property-lists-to"></a>
<a name="index-machine_002dreadable_002c-converting-property-lists-to-1"></a>
<p>VPtoVF translates a virtual property list file (as output by VFtoVP, for
example) to virtual font (VF, see <a href="dvips.html#Virtual-fonts">Virtual fonts</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>) and
TeX font metric (TFM, see <a href="dvips.html#Metric-files">Metric files</a> in <cite>Dvips</cite>) files.
It’s much easier for both programs and humans to create the (plain text)
property list files and let VPtoVF take care of creating the binary VF
and TFM equivalents than to output them directly. Synopsis:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">vptovf [<var>option</var>]… <var>vplfile</var>[.vpl] [<var>vffile</var>[.vf] [<var>tfmfile</var>[.tfm]]]
</pre></div>
<p>If <var>vffile</var> (extended with ‘<samp>.vf</samp>’ if necessary) is not
specified, the VF output is written to the basename of
‘<samp><var>vplfile</var>.vf</samp>’; similarly for <var>tfmfile</var>. For example,
‘<samp>vptovf /wherever/ptmr.vpl</samp>’ creates <samp>./ptmr.vf</samp> and
<samp>./ptmr.tfm</samp>.
</p>
<p>The only options are ‘<samp>-verbose</samp>’, ‘<samp>-help</samp>’, and ‘<samp>-version</samp>’
(see <a href="#Common-options">Common options</a>).
