Re: typos in AFM files for AMS WNCY fonts

["Berthold K.P. Horn" <bkph@ai.mit.edu>]

Hi:

You are right.  Sorry about that.  Thanks for the correction.
Since these AFMs were made in 1992, I suspect the ligature fields 
may have been filled in by hand rather than using TFMtoAFM.
Hence the potential for typos like that...
