This directory contains all the BaKoMa Computer Modern fonts in Macintosh TrueType format. These fonts are the same fonts in tex-archive/fonts/cm/ps-type1/bakoma/mrf, except for three minor differences. The first is that the files in the mrf directory are in MacBinary format, while the fonts in this directory are stuffed, binhexed files, a more common format for archived Mac files. The second is that each font in the mrf directory is an individual suitcase with the name *FontName#.mrf, where * is a space or empty character and # is a number (which does not correspond to the font size). In this directory, however, all similarly named fonts were grouped in a suitcase named after that font. For example, all sizes of the Computer Modern Roman fonts are in cmr.mrf.sit.hqx. The third is that the screen font name for each font has been prefixed with a "~". This pushes all the fonts to the bottom of the font menu, so that all your regular fonts remain more accessible at the top. It is also possible to remove some or all the BaKoMa fonts from the font menu by replacing the "~" with a "%". See the section on hidden fonts below for more details. After de-binhexing and unstuffing, all the Computer Modern Roman fonts will be in the cmr.mrf suitcase. (Trivial note: I believe mrf stands for Macintosh Resource Format.) The fonts in the mrf directory were created by Basil K. Malyshev using Font Monger. To use these fonts on a Macintosh, just drop them into your System Folder under System 7.x, at which point the system will put them where they belong. They should appear in an applications's Font menu like any other font and should print on either PostScript or non-PostScript printers. ATM screen fonts are not currently available for the Computer Modern fonts. If you own Fontographer, Font Monger, or the font utilities from Y&Y, you can create these bitmaps from the AFM and PostScript files. If you do create these screen fonts, please upload them to CTAN so that others can have access to them. No ATM or Mac TrueType screen fonts exist for the AMS fonts, so currently the AMS fonts can only be used for printing. If you have any of the programs listed above, you can create them yourself. If you do, please upload them to CTAN. To use these fonts with OzTeX, see the 00readme.oztex file in tex-archive/fonts/cm/ps-type1/bakoma/mac/oztex. Hidden Fonts ------------ You can remove the BaKoMa fonts from the font menu and still use them with OzTeX. However, if you do this no other application, (except possibly Textures), will be able to access these fonts. There are two steps to do this. It is probably best to work on a copy of the TrueType fonts when your using ResEdit. 1. Change the "~" to a "%" in the screen font name in the "Add BaKoMa fonts" file. Do this for any of the fonts you want to hide. For example, the current line for cmr12 in the "Add BaKoMa fonts" looks like = cmr12 cmr12
