Description:
METAFONT is a system for the design of symbols and alphabetic characters suited to raster-based devices that print or display text.

With this manual, readers will learn how to write a program using METAFONT that can customize a type design that already exists, create an entire alphabet from scratch, and create logos or special symbols.
