[NTG-context] texfont fails for font Cataneo BoldSwash

2008-06-30 Thread Andreas Schneider
Hello,

when I install the font Cataneo (from a Corel CD) with texfont, 4 of the 5 
font files (Light, Regular, RegularSwash, Bold) proceed correctly, but on the 
4th (BoldSwash) texfont produces an error message an creates empty files. I'm 
using texlive 2007 from the Debian Lenny GNU/Linux distribution.

texmfstart 
texfont --fontroot=debian/font-cataneo/usr/share/texmf --vendor=bitstrea 
--collection=cataneo --encoding=texnansi --makepath --install

The AFM file of the font is invalid. There should be a space
between the B and the -78.

Best wishes,

thanks a lot, I corrected the AFM file (i.e. added a space between the B and 
the -78), and now texfont produces tfm etc. files. Unfortunatley there is 
still an error message:
kern char not found
KPX AT -46

   ^

Is this another error in the AFM file?

Best wishes

Yes. The Format is

   KPX   

with spaces inbetween. I suspect it needs a space between A and T.

Best wishes,
Taco

thanks again. Inserting a space between A and T fits to all the other entries 
and eliminates the error message. I haven't seen a professional font made so 
grubby yet.

Best wishes

welcome to the world of fonts ... given some errors one sometimes 
wonders if a font is used at all (some time ago we had to use a 1200 
euro font which had a completely wrong afm vector and even the wrong 
shapes fitting to characters)
