mtp2otf
=======
Version 1.0

Convert MathTime™ Professional 2 (MTPro2) into OpenType MATH fonts for
Word and unicode-math. Full and Lite have separate installation names.

Requirements
------------
A POSIX shell, Python 3.10 or later with fontTools, FontForge with Python
3.10 or later support, and tftopl (included in TeX Live). The tools must be
on PATH.
Dependencies and font inputs are supplied separately; nothing is downloaded
or installed by the build.

Input files
-----------
Create the input directories:
  mkdir -p mtpro2 donors

Copy the MTPro2 PFB/TFM files and mtpro2.sty into mtpro2/.
Full also needs umt2ms.fd, umt2mf.fd, umt2bb.fd, and umt2hrb.fd there.
Files must be directly in mtpro2/; TeX trees are not searched.
The build reports incomplete inputs for the selected edition.

Place the default Artifex urw-base35 Roman donors in donors/:
  NimbusRoman-Regular.otf
  NimbusRoman-Bold.otf

Quick start
-----------
  ./build.sh                  # Full
  ./build.sh --edition=lite   # Lite

Another upright, proportional Regular/Bold pair from the same Roman family
can be selected with:
  ./build.sh --roman-regular=/path/to/Regular.otf \
             --roman-bold=/path/to/Bold.otf

Static CFF OTF and TrueType TTF donors are accepted. Required character
coverage is checked; optional text coverage varies with the donor.

Output
------
  Full: out/MTPro2Math.otf, out/MTPro2Math.ttf
  Lite: out/MTPro2MathLite.otf, out/MTPro2MathLite.ttf

Only validated fonts are placed in out/. Full and Lite outputs coexist.
Intermediate files, local source values, and build.log remain under
build/full/ or build/lite/. A failed build leaves previous outputs intact;
their presence alone does not mean the latest build succeeded.

Use the TTF in Word and select MTPro2 Math or MTPro2 Math Lite as the math
font. With LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX, select the OTF through unicode-math.
No project-specific TeX package or Lua callback is required.

Documentation
-------------
doc/mtp2otf.tex describes the conversion and validation contracts.
Compile it with lualatex to produce the technical specification.
doc/word.docx and doc/lualatex.tex are editable specimens; their PDFs show
the Full edition with Nimbus donors. See the specification for rebuilding
the specimens and for engine-specific limitations.
