Description: | The TrueTeX Computer Modern fonts are outline versions of Donald Knuth's Computer Modern METAFONT-based fonts for the TeX typesetting system. Knuth based his designs on Monotype 8A, pre-digital faces which were used to set the first volumes of his famous books of the 1970s on _The Art of Computer Programming_. In his remarkable 1986 book, _Computer Modern Typefaces_, Knuth credits Hermann Zapf, Matthew Carter, Richard Southall, Neenie Billawala, Charles Bigelow, Kris Holmes, and "the anonymous original designer of Monotype 8A" as responsible for any merit in the designs. While many consider these designs out of fashion, and even frumpy, Knuth's typefaces have been used to set far more technical documents than any other style. Knuth's METAFONT designs consist of pen strokes and filled shapes which overlap, a more sophisticated and incompatible design model compared to that of TrueType. The difficult conversion to outlines was performed by Kinch's Metafog, a software system for planar constructive geometry using shapes defined by Bezier curves. |
