Hi,

 

I have converted a TTF into Omega font format. I am using PERL utility
"font_install_unicode.pl" 

I have MikTeX package at windows platform. 

 

The steps I followed are:

 

Converte TTF to TFM files using command "ttf2tfm Nafeesweb.ttf
nafeeswebnaskh at unicode@"                 

 

Generate TFM to PL files.

 

Genrate OVP using font_install_unicode.pl.

 

Genrate OVP and OFM using ovp2ovf utility. 

 

And place all files to their relevant directories. 

 

Now when I compose a omega file using "nafeeswebnaskh font" it generates DVI
file successfully. 

But when I try to open this DVI in YAP it gives me errors message:

 

 

Making PK font:

C:\texmf\miktex\bin\makepk.exe --verbose nafeeswebnaskh00 1440 600 2+240/600
ljfour

Trying to make PK font "nafeeswebnaskh00" (at 1440 DPI)...

"makemf" --verbose "nafeeswebnaskh00"

"ttf2pk" -q -t "nafeeswebnaskh00"

"ttf2pk" -q -n "nafeeswebnaskh00" 1440

ttf2pk: ERROR: Cannot find tfm file.

makepk: "nafeeswebnaskh00.pk" could not be created.

 

 

 

Would you please help me to solve this problem? 

 

Thanks and regards,

Atif
