Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist To use japanese PostScript fonts and/or TrueType fonts etc. in TeX files, we need VF fonts and vftool is a tool to generate these VF fonts.
As a similar tool, there is makejvf (which I maintain too) and the differences between vftool and makejvf are; - vftool is much versatile than makejvf but - vftool is much difficult to use than makejvf * Description: a tool to generate VF files for dvi2ps/dvi2dvi You can use PostScript fonts and/or TrueType fonts etc. in your TeX files with the VF files generated by vftool. * Copyright is as follows; It was downloaded from ftp://ftp.math.s.chiba-u.ac.jp/tex Upstream Author(s): Takafumi Sakurai <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Copyright: NOTE: The author tells us that the license of vftool is same as that of dvi2ps-j but it is not yet included in upstream distribution so we provide here the license of dvi2ps-j, please replace dvi2ps-j with vftool when you read it.
