27 .SH DESCRIPTION |
|
28 This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete |
|
29 documentation for this version of \*(TX can be found in the info file |
|
30 or manual |
|
31 .IR "Kpathsea: A library for path searching" . |
|
32 .PP |
|
33 .B mktexpk |
|
34 is used to generate a |
|
35 .I pk |
|
36 file from the \*(MF source files or type1 sources for |
|
37 .IR font , |
|
38 if possible. |
|
39 .PP |
|
40 If |
|
41 .I redirect |
|
42 is given, it must be string of the form |
|
43 .I >&n |
|
44 where |
|
45 .I n |
|
46 is the number of the file descriptor which is to receive, instead of |
|
47 standard output, the name of the generated file. |
|
48 .PP |
|
49 .B mktexpk |
|
50 is typically called by other programs, rather than from the command |
|
51 line. |

|
71 The \*(MF magnification that corresponds to the combination of |
|
72 .I bdpi |
|
73 and |
|
74 .I dpi |
|
75 that has been specified. |
|
76 .rb |
|
77 .TP |
|

91 .\"===================================================================== |
|
92 .SH BUGS |
|
93 If the |
|
94 .I mode |
|
95 is not specified, |
|
96 .B mktexpk |
|
97 tries to determine it from |
|
98 .IR bdpi . |
|
99 The manner in which this is done is primitive. Since |
|
100 .I bpdi |
|
101 doesn't provide sufficient information to uniquely determine a |
|
102 .I mode |
|
103 it is strongly recommended that it be specified explicitly. |
|
104 .PP |
|
105 If the |
|
106 .I mode |
|
107 and |
|
108 .I bpdi |
|
109 don't match, the |
|
110 .I mode |
|
111 is discarded. |
|
112 .PP |
|
113 The |
|
114 .I dpi |
|
115 parameter is redundant, but is not checked for consistency. Worse, |
|
116 the program will fail if the wrong |
|
117 .I dpi |
|
118 is specified. |
