Installing the MathTime Professional fonts for use with VTeX/Free

Installing of the MathTime Professional fonts provided by PCTeX Inc in a VTeX/Free system is straightforward, since the layout of the MathTime Pro distribution complies with the TDS specifications.

1. Having purchased MathTime Professional from PCTeX Inc., you should have received a ZIP archive named mtpfonts.zip.tpm.
2. unzip this archive in the directory where your texmf directory tree is located (i.e., not inside texmf).
   On OS/2 this is normally the root directory of the partition where VTeX has been installed.
   On Linux this is normally the directory /usr/local/.
   Doing so will add the fonts and the related support files to the texmf/ tree.
   Unpacking of the archive will also create a new directory named templates beside texmf; it contains a number of sample documents. Feel free to move this directory to a more appropriate place in your file system.
3. If you have got the "Font Supplement A" and/or "B", too, install the related archives analogously.
4. Download the VTeX-specific font mapping file mtpro.ali. and save it to the directory texmf/fonts/map/vtex/ of your VTeX/Free system.
   The latest version of this file covers also the fonts of the "Supplement A" and "B" collections.
5. Edit your VTeX configuration files texmf/vtex/config/pdf.fm and texmf/vtex/config/ps.fm .
   In the TYPE1 section of each file you will have to add a record for the additional map file mtpro.ali:

   TYPE1 {
     ...
     mtpro.ali
     }
   

Having completed the above steps, you should be able to use the MathTime Professional fonts with VTeX/Free. Documentation will be available from the directory texmf/doc/fonts/mtpro/.
