There is a warning that these instructions may be out of date, but I haven't found anything newer. This is under TeX Live 2013, the context scheme, and I've been using ConTeXt mkiv. I found texfont.pl, though it wasn't in the path, and managed to run it in the directory where I have my .ttf files: $ sudo PATH=$PATH /usr/local/texlive/2013/texmf-dist/scripts/context/perl/texfont.pl --ve=sil --co=gentium --makepath --install But then I get errors about ttf2afm: TeXFont 2.2.1 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 2000-2004 mktexlsr: Updating /usr/local/texlive/2013/../texmf-local/ls-R... mktexlsr: Done. encoding vector : texnansi vendor name : sil source path : . font collection : gentium texmf font root : /usr/local/texlive/2013/../texmf-local map file name : texnansi-sil-gentium.map source path : . processing files : all on afm path locating afm files : using pattern ./*.afm locating afm files : using ttf files generating afm file : ./GentiumPlus-I.afm sh: ttf2afm: command not found generating afm file : ./GentiumPlus-R.afm sh: ttf2afm: command not found copying files : afm copying files : pfb copying files : ttf copying : GentiumPlus-I.ttf copying : GentiumPlus-R.ttf processing aborted : no afm files found --help : show some more info I can't find ttf2afm anywhere. Is it part of pdfTex? Do I have to have the pdftex scheme installed in order to install True-type fonts?
