Hallo,
how should the directory be named where a 600 dpi pk-font is searched
for by luatex?
Wolfgang

i'm not so sure if luatex does pk fonts (i havent't included pk fonts in
15 years)

it does, with the default kpathsea paths, e. g.:

Context mkiv does not support pk files (the luatex executable itself
does, but context mkiv overrules all search paths and does not support
searching for pk files).

the find and read callbacks are set so it should find them, although
there might be logic in kpse with respect to pk files that is not
implemented (like generating bitmaps or so)
i wonder if it's really worth the trouble to support bitmap fonts in
mkiv as hardly anyone will use them

Right, OpenType can embed bitmap fonts (even TrueType could, if I'm
not mistaken); if the font is only available as PK, it should be
possible to make it into an OpenType font, using FontForge, for example.
That being said, I realize that it means Metafont fonts can't be used
in Mark IV, am I right?

I'm not sure maybe with mftrace
http://lilypond.org/mftrace/
From ff site
""
Different font formats
FontForge supports Type1, truetype, opentype, cff, type42, cid-keyed
and svg fonts, also bdf and NFNT for bitmaps
FontForge will sort-of accept metafont files (essentially it runs
metafont and autotraces the result). It won't produce .mf files

The chance of this working is minimal. For certain, I have never
tested bitmapped opentype fonts, and I also am sure that subsetting
won't work at all. Also, I am even less interested in bitmapped
opentype fonts than I am in pk files.

Dumping a ready-made pk file in the local directory worked last
time I tried it.
Best wishes,
Taco

No, neither OpenType or TrueType support bitmap-only, they can embed
bitmaps besides the regular outlines (X11 have there own OpenType
bitmap-only format, but it isn't a standard).

Thanks for the precision, Khaled. I have to admit I never looked into
the details, I only knew one could embed bitmaps, but it seems I
extrapolated a bit.

I would imagine one day luatex being able to read metafont fonts's, pass
them through mplib to generate splines then through fontloader to build
OpenType fonts out of it, so one can still use metafonts metaness with
the complex layout feature of opentype and it vector fonts.
But given how few metafont fonts is (and only one family is really a
"meta" font), the effort seems not so worthy.

Khaled

it depends ...
- i never had a running bitmap system the last 15 years so i cannot even
test
- mkiv and luatex change a lot as we want to move forward
- in order to be of more help i need more info etc
how important are bitmaps? is there really no alternative?

well, i could turn
600dpi/manfnt.720pk
into
manfnt.720pk
and then assume that it's present someplace (and indexed by luatools
--generate)
do you have files with such names? (it's then up to the user to make
sure that those files are indeed generated and present but anyone who
uses bitmaps is supposed to be able to do that)

Hallo,
I have it found!
In chapter 4.1.1.10 of the luatex reference one can read:
The argument name is a bit special in this case. Its form is
<base res>dpi/<fontname>.<actual res>pk

Hmm! luatex ignores this and luatex --help does not list an option
named --track nor does it context.

You're right, Mark IV doesn't, so my piece of advice wasn't really
useful, sorry :-) But it is still there in LuaTeX (the engine).

so it would be nice, if a user could see (from a log) what and where
luatex is searching. Isn't there any switch?

hm there is a plain
minimals-beta/tex/texmf/tex/plain/base/plain.tex
and in
minimals-beta/tex/texmf-context/tex/generic/context
#> luatex --ini luatex-plain.tex
#> luatex --fmt=luatex-plain.fmt luatex-test.tex
works with some errors about font path
(I believe we need some fontmap files from texlive)

If you're working in a shell, try setting the KPATHSEA_DEBUG
environment variable to -1, you will get tons of information about path
lookups and directory searches.

No success! Neiter *.pk nor *.600pk
and not with a local subdir /dpi600
What extension have you used?
Is there a debug-switch which informs the user what and where luatex
is searching?

sorry, i can't help. (Plain) luatex (as of TeX Live) would work, but the
minimals seem not to contain plain luatex (which is a pity), and context
does some automatism which includes Type0C fonts instead of pk.

Hello Hartmut, hallo Hans,
I have tried both variants but nothing works.
I use the minimals under windows.
What can I do (examine files, logs) to solve the problem?
