Summary: A converter for PostScript(TM) font metric files, for use with TeX

Description: 

tetex-afm provides afm2tfm, a converter for PostScript font metric files.
PostScript fonts are accompanied by .afm font metric files which describe
the characteristics of each font.  To use PostScript fonts with TeX,
TeX needs .tfm files that contain similar information.  Afm2tfm will
convert .afm files to .tfm files.

If you are installing tetex in order to use the TeX text formatting
system, you will need to install tetex-afm.  You will also need to install
tetex-dvilj (for converting .dvi files to HP PCL format for printing on
HP and HP compatible printers), tetex-dvips (for converting .dvi files
to PostScript format for printing on PostScript printers), tetex-latex
(a higher level formatting package which provides an easier-to-use
interface for TeX) and tetex-xdvi (for previewing .dvi files in X).
Unless you're an expert at using TeX, you'll probably also want to
install the tetex-doc package, which includes documentation for TeX.
