I need to generate a large number of afms, but I'm having difficulty getting this utility to work: getafm > .afm works fine, but getafm *.pfb > *.afm does not. There does not appear to be any help info for getafm either; getafm -h[--help] actually generates an on-screen afm listing(?) Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can do this?
