3  This is ttftot42, a program to facilitate using TrueType fonts on
4PostScript interpreters with TrueType rasterizer.
5
6  You need the FreeType library to compile and use it.
7
8
9  TrueType fonts cannot be converted to Type 1 fonts without loss of
10quality, since conversion introduces rounding errors and loses hinting
11information.  Therefore, newer PostScript interpreters (Adobe
12PostScript since version 2013, ghostscript since 5.03) include a
13TrueType rasterizers.  To use a TrueType font with them, it has to be
14embedded in a PostScript font dictionary; this format is called Type 42.
15
16  This program generates such Type 42 fonts from TrueType fonts.  It
17can also generate Adobe Font Metrics files (AFM files), including
18kerning information.
19
20  Not yet supported are TrueType Collections and the creation of CID
21keyed fonts from large TrueType fonts (East Asian or Unicode fonts).
