some info about MetaType1
MetaType1 is a [[MetaPost]]-based engine for generating [[Type 1]] fonts, written by Bogusław Jackowski, Janusz M. Nowacki (and Piotr Strzelczyk ?). It was made to substitute Knuth's [[MetaFont]], which is only capable of producing bitmap fonts.
(One can only use "fill" commands, pens are not supported.)
The utility was used to create:
* [[Latin Modern]] fonts (a substitute for Knuth's Computer Modern)
* Antykwa Toruńska, Antykwa Półtawskiego, Kurier & Iwona, see http://www.janusz.nowacki.strefa.pl/
