This directory contains a rasterizer for "Type 1" (PostScript) format outline fonts. It was donated by IBM for the R5 contrib tape and has been maintained since then by the MIT X Consortium. This version is compatible with X11R5 public patch 13. To be used, this rasterizer must be bound into the X server and the font server. It is most convenient to do this if this directory is moved into the 'mit' directory tree (i.e., mit/font/lib/font/Type1, a peer of the 'Speedo' directory). Of course, mit/font/lib/font/Imakefile must be made aware of its new subdirectory and the objects in it. In any case, you must ensure that the library mit/font/lib/font/libfont.a contains this code. In addition, the rasterizer must be "registered" with X. The source in mit/fonts/lib/font/fontfile/renderers.c, specifically the routine FontFileRegisterFontFileFunctions(), must be modified to add the line: Type1RegisterFontFileFunctions(); after the call to "SpeedoRegisterFontFileFunctions". Some Type 1 fonts have been donated; see, for example, the directory contrib/fonts/scaled/Type1. In order to use them, they must be in the font path, either by combining them in some existing font object directory, or adding a new font directory to the path.
