README
pktype verifies a PK-format bitmap font. pktogf converts a PK-format bitmap font to GF format. These programs are released to the public domain (as is this README file). These programs were originally written by Tomas Rokicki as part of his Stanford Ph.D. work, and have always been distributed alongside the other programs coming from the Stanford TeX project, though they are not maintained by Donald Knuth. The related program gftopk[.web], however, is maintained by DEK and is part of the "mfware" collection (https://ctan.org/pkg/mfware). gftopk is by far the most commonly used of the PK font utilities. pktype and pktogf are currently maintained by Tom and the TeX Live project (https://tug.org/texlive).
