getnonfreefonts

       uted on a CD

       getnonfreefonts-sys - download and install fonts system-wide which can-
       not be distributed on a CD


SYNOPSIS
       getnonfreefonts [options] [fontlist]

       getnonfreefonts-sys [options] [fontlist]


DESCRIPTION
       Some  font  suppliers  provided fonts which can be used freely but they
       disallow that money is charged for the distribution.  Hence,  for  dis-
       tributions  on  CD  or  DVD  it  is usually impossible to include these
       fonts.

       getnonfreefonts is a script which downloads and installs  these  fonts.
       Actually,  it  first  downloads  the program getfont<year> from tug.org
       which is then executed.  getfont<year> does the real work.  It will  be
       updated occasionally to support more fonts.  <year> denotes the TeXLive
       release.

       getnonfreefonts and getnonfreefonts-sys are identical except that  get-
       nonfreefonts  installs  files  to  $TEXMFHOME while getnonfreefonts-sys
       installs files to $TEXMFLOCAL.

       getfont<year> will not be installed permanently  on  your  system.   It
       only exists in a temporary directory while getnonfreefonts is running.

       Run getnonfreefonts --lsfonts to get a list of supported fonts.


OPTIONS
       -a, --all
              Install all fonts.


       -d, --debug
              Provide  additional  messages for debugging.  These messages are
              sent to STDERR.


       -f, --force
              Install fonts even if they are installed already.


       -h, --help
              Print a help message.  Nothing is installed but the  directories
              where  the  fonts  will be installed and the temporary directory
              are shown.  <PID> will be replaced by the process ID of the cur-
              rent process.



       --version
              Print version number.


ENVIRONMENT
       One of the environment variables TMP, TEMP, or TMPDIR must exist.  They
       are used to determine where to put the temporary files.  The  directory
       must  exist  and  must  be  writable.  /tmp will be used if none of the
       variables is defined.


REQUIREMENTS
       Though this program is supposed to be used with TeX Live it might  work
       with  other  TeX  distributions too.  The programs wget or curl, unzip,
       and kpsewhich have to be installed and a recent version  of  updmap  is
       required which supports the --enable option.

       Please send bug reports to Reinhard Kotucha <reinhard.kotucha@web.de>.
