I have metafont from atari.archive, and I have been having problems
with it. The .tfm files which it generates are not entirely correct,
and when I try to initex plain.tex, it rejects them (otherwise, 
DVI programs say that the font does not match the .tfm file).

The package from atari.archive comes with virmf, but not with inimf,
so a better package would be nice for all of us. Is there one anywhere,
maybe at a German site?

Please follow up directly to the net, since this is a general interest
question.
