软件包摘要
Trace TeX bitmap font to PFA, PFB, or TTF font
历史
项目历史与用法
mftrace grew out of the TeX and METAFONT font toolchain as a Python wrapper for converting TeX bitmap fonts into scalable outlines. The LilyPond-hosted manual describes it as tracing a TeX bitmap font into PFA, PFB, or TTF output, and notes that versions before 1.0.5 were named pktrace. The project documentation and man page identify Han-Wen Nienhuys as the author.
项目历史
The tool's importance is narrow but durable: it bridges METAFONT-era bitmap fonts and scalable font formats used by PostScript, PDF, and TrueType workflows. Its manual describes the reason for the conversion in package-nerd terms: scalable fonts render across printer resolutions and let Ghostscript generate better PDFs than bitmap-only inputs.
使用方式
In use, mftrace delegates the heavy lifting to font and tracing utilities such as METAFONT, potrace or autotrace, t1asm, and FontForge-like tooling. That makes it a glue package for TeX distributions, music engraving and document publishing systems, and maintainers converting old METAFONT designs into formats expected by modern font consumers. Its packaging across Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, MacPorts, Nix, Ubuntu, and openSUSE reflects that it is infrastructure for a specialized publishing niche rather than an end-user font editor.
