Description

texlive-afm provides afm2tfm, a converter for PostScript(TM) 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 texlive in order to use the TeX text formatting system and PostScript files, you will need to install texlive-afm. You will also need to install texlive-dvips (for converting .dvi files to PostScript format for printing on PostScript printers), texlive-latex (a higher level formatting package which provides an easier-to-use interface for TeX), and xdvi (for previewing .dvi files in X).

The TeX documentation is located in the texlive-doc package.
