First off, Hans, am I missing a runtools.rb? I can't find it. Secondly, I think the current demofont.dat has a bug because it triggers an obscure texfont filtering feature. I changed the comments at the head of the file to work around it: # we assume that demofont.afm and demofont.pfb are present # run with: # texfont demofont.dat # test test --ve=test --co=test --ma --in demofont --ve=test --co=test --ma --in --sla=.167 demofont --ve=test --co=test --ma --in --ext=1.50 demofont --ve=test --co=test --ma --in --cap=.750 demofont --ve=test --co=test --ma --in --nol demofont ...and by running: texfont --ve=test --co=test --ma --in demofont.dat ...I do indeed get the modified Iwona fonts. more below...

Okay, another couple hacks to cross further hurdles: The top of my mfonts.tex now looks like: \preloadtypescripts % I wanted to speed things up a bit! \startnotmode[atpragma] \startMPenvironment[global] % Current bug in distribution \definefontsynonym [LMSans-Italic] [LMSans-Oblique] \definefontsynonym [LMSans-BoldItalic] [LMSans-BoldOblique] % lucida gets called all over the place \definetypescriptsynonym [lucida] [palatino] \usetypescript[adobekb][8r,ec] \stopMPenvironment \stopnotmode \usetypescriptfile [type-buy] \usetypescriptfile [typeface] \environment ../allkind/mcommon.tex ... That much ought to fix the main body (though with the synonyms and substitutions, the fonts it mentions in the text are not always going to match the actual fonts used now!) Go down a little bit, and you'll see the title page font set: \startnotmode[atpragma] \startMPenvironment[global] \usetypescript[handwriting,map][lucida][texnansi] \definefontsynonym[TitlePage-Bold][LucidaHandwriting-Italic] %usetypescript[calligraphy,map][chancery][texnansi] %definefontsynonym[TitlePage-Bold][Chancery] % ... comment out the lucida lines, and uncomment the chancery lines, and you should be in business for a full run! er, I hope.
