Hi,

good news for all, who have problems with creating pk-fonts
for PasTeX.

Martin Bokaemper (mnbokaem@cip.e-technik.uni-erlangen.de) has written
two ARexx scripts, which are called directly from the PasTeX drivers
(DVIprint, ShowDVI) if a pk-font is missing.

If you set the variable CALLMF to 'MakeTeXfont' the drivers waits until
MF has created the font.
With 'setenv CALLMF MakeBatch', the script create only a shell-script
which would generate all missing fonts.

All what you need is the MetaFont from Stefan Becker (mf2_7.lzh)
the MetaFont font sources (*.mf files) and the CallMF scripts.

You can copy the CallMF archive from:
  ftp.uni-passau.de (132.231.1.10)
  /pub/amiga/tex/CallMF_0.82.lzh

	Georg.
