F.A.Q

The script cannot find the fonts. Can I configure where it should be searched ?

The script - according to the platform - preload the paths where search for fonts.
But if after searching in each one of these, the font can't be find, you can still use the procedure SetSystemFontsPaths for add new locations.

How add new fonts and encodings ?

The script include some definitions files but if you need use your own you have two ways. Althoug the true type fonts are load on the fly also you can use the script makefont.tcl to generate new definitions for .otf or .pfb files (and .ttf of course).

It seems there are some files that the script want to save but this causes an error? Can i set what folder should be used ?.

The script need a writable folder to work. This will be use to keep reusable definition files that make the process - a little - faster. At the beginning the script pre-load a folder - according to platform- but you can choose other using the procedure SetUserPath.
