 I. Description of the ps4mf-package 
 ------------------------------------ 
 
     In order to use Postscript-Type1-fonts for TeX without any special 
   encoding scheme (like dc, ec, nfss) you now can convert your favourite 
   postscript-font to Metafont-readable files. 
   This postscript-font has to be encoded in the "AdobeStandardEncoding- 
   scheme". The output is a metafont-file in stardard-computer-modern 
   encoding like the cm-family. 
 
     You also can get dc-encoding, just choose right conversion routine 
   (see below at chapter III.). 
 
     This package is based on the ps2mf-package of the authors: 
   Marcel Dings (original idea of the ps2mf-package) and Erik-Jan Vens (new 
   ps2mf.exe 2.0).

 VI. WHERE TO GET FONTS: 
 ----------------------- 
 (a)  To get a nice listings, character-pictures and ftp-connections of fonts 
      try WWW with mosaic/netscape/etc.: 
 
        CTAN at WWW: 
        http://jasper.ora.com/ 
 
        There is a fontpage which allows to look at fonts and download them 
        directly! 
 
 
 (b)  You can get postscript-fonts via anonymous ftp at 
 
    -  ftp.uni-stuttgart.de          (mirror of hobbes.nmsu.edu) 
          /pub/systems/os2/hobbes-mirror/multimed/fonts 
 
    -  ftp.uni-freiburg.de 
          /pc/os2/atmfonts 
 
    -  ftp obelix.icce.rug.nl 
          /pub/erikjan/fonts/type.one.fonts 
          /pub/erikjan/fonts/BitStream 
 
    -  garbo.uwasa.fi 
          /pc/fonts 
            - Attention: utopia.zip   - metafont problems! 
                If you look into the .mf file after using conv_gho you find 
                several hundred lines sprinkled randomly about the file 
                containing only a right parenthesis. When you delete these 
                lines, Metafont runs without a problem and you now have a 
                Utopia font.
