You need the Perl utility, the fontinst package, and TeX to use this package. Begin by placing copies of all outline fonts with their matching afm files in the VFinst work directory. Each font-afm pair of files must have the same file name. Start the process by executing the command perl ../1vfinst or maybe just `../1vfinst' (assuming Unix conventions and that this material is found in the parent directory to the work directory). 1vfinst will tell you what to do next, but please consider reading the file `vfinst.tex' (part of the VFinst package) for additional information. (This brief introduction is stored in the file `vfinst.go'. EndNow open(OUT, ">vfinst.go"); print OUT $now; print $now; close OUT;
