mktexpk1

Usage

Overview

This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete documentation for this version of TeX can be found in the info file or manual Kpathsea: A library for path searching.

mktexpk is used to generate a pk file from the Metafont source files or type1 sources for font, if possible.

If redirect is given, it must be string of the form >&n where n is the number of the file descriptor which is to receive, instead of standard output, the name of the generated file.

mktexpk is typically called by other programs, rather than from the command line.
