fontname: Introduction

 
 1 Introduction
 **************
 
 This is Fontname, a naming scheme for (the base part of) external TeX
 font filenames.  This makes at most eight-character names from (almost)
 arbitrarily complex font names, thus helping portability of TeX
 documents.  We point out some shortcomings of the scheme, and ways of
 dealing with them.

    Besides this document, the Fontname distribution includes various
 encoding files, mapping files, and utilities.  See the file `README'
 for details.  You can retrieve the most up-to-date version of these
 lists from `http://tug.org/fontname'.  It is also mirrored on all CTAN
 hosts in the directory `tex-archive/doc/fontname'.  For a list of CTAN
