Hi Shunshaku,
just want to disable automatic PK font creation? I think this is the
only "standard" way to do this.
FWIW, I agree with Igor here. The standard behavior in kpathsea is not
to call mktexpk for absolute/explicitly relative fonts. It's not
useful/desirable to do so. I'm somewhat surprised it has not come up
before this.
Dvipdfmx calls "kpathsea_find_glyph".
How about just checking for absoluteness in dvipdfmx?
if (!kpathsea_absolute_p(...)) {
...
kpathsea_find_glyph(...);
...
}
I don't know what complications ensure. There's always something ...
Best,
Karl
