afm2tfm - convert Adobe font metrics to TeX font metrics
PostScript fonts are (or should be) accompanied by font metric files such
as Times-Roman.afm, which describes the characteristics of the font called
Times-Roman. To use such fonts with TeX, we need TFM files that contain
similar information. This program does that conversion. For more information,
print out the dvips manual.
psfonts.map in the config directory used
by dvips (update this).
../afm/Makefile in the dvips sources (look at this for examples).

An option to add letterspacing to the
virtual font was rejected by Knuth because it would make the fi and fl
ligatures break the normal rhythmic pattern.
