Daniel H. Luecking | A researcher in the Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Arkansas, who specializes in metafont. He made the travel dingbat face "nkarta15", a correction and extension of the free metafont "karta" which in turn is of unknown origin. He also made a metapost file out of it. Download these fonts here. I took the liberty of making a tfm file with tfmpktest.pl, and from the tfm abd mf files, with the help of mftrace and t1utils, I made afm and pfb files: nkarta15 (type 1) (2008). [Google] [More] ⦿ |

mfpic
| A free program with macros to help draw metafont figures. Its history: MFpic was initiated by Tom Leathrum in 1992. At some point in version 0.2.x most of the development passed to Geoffrey Tobin. In 1996, when the (unreleased) version was at 0.2.14, Dan Luecking began trying to transform mfpic's Metafont code into MetaPost code, and then folding MetaPost support into mfpic.tex. With Geoffrey Tobin's help, and that of a small group of mfpic aficionados on the Net, Luecking published mfpic v. 0.5. Dan Luecking is at the Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Arkansas. [Google] [More] ⦿ |
