96 __VPtoVF__ is an extended version of the program
2 perry 97 __PLtoTF__, which is part of the standard !TeXware
1 perry 98 library. __OVP2OVF__ is an extended version of
99 __VPtoVF__ that allows much larger fonts. The idea of a
100 virtual font was inspired by the work of David R. Fuchs who
101 designed a similar set of conventions in 1984 while
2 perry 102 developing a device driver for !ArborText, Inc. He wrote a
1 perry 103 somewhat similar program called __PLFONT__.
