I've been playing a little with it. pdfTeX (version
3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20011114-ojmw at least) doesn't seem to want to
use cmr10+5.600pk when it can use cmr10.pfb. I have tried the pktrace
conversion utility advertised on this list, but it doesn't seem to
like 128 character fonts. So I'm trying the ec* fonts, modifying them
appropriately. The coding for this is relatively easy:
(1) Create ecrme.mf from ecrm.mf, and similarly for the other
generating files, by adding the line "u#:=u#+expandu/1000*u#;"
after the gendef u# line.
(2) Modify mktexmf to generate ecrm1000+20.mf similarly to
ecrm1000.mf, but adding the line "expandu:=20;" and modifying the
"generate $rootname;" line to read "generate ${rootname}e;".
Seemed to work fine.
