Installing the Auto 1 fonts in MikTex

(This is mainly for my own reference when re-installing).

From here on, if I'm talking about a "root", this will mean the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9 or equivalent (this directory should contain the folders "fonts" and "tex").

First, download Nico Schlömer's Auto1 package at CTAN. Also find some way to get the actual TTF Auto 1 files as sold by Underware.

Copy the files from

• enc/ in the zipfile to root/fonts/enc/dvips/auto1
• map/ in the zipfile to root/fonts/map/dvips/auto1
• tfm/ in the zipfile to root/fonts/tfm/underware
• vf/ in the zipfile to root/fonts/vf/underware

Also copy the TTF auto 1 font files to root/fonts/truetype/underware, and make sure they're named

Auto1-BoldSmCp.ttf
Auto1-Bold.ttf
Auto1-BlackItalicLF.ttf
Auto1-LightSmCp.ttf
Auto1-ItalicLF.ttf
Auto1-BoldItalicSmCp.ttf
Auto1-LightItalic.ttf
Auto1-Regular.ttf
Auto1-BoldItalic.ttf
Auto1-LightLF.ttf
Auto1-LightItalicSmCp.ttf
Auto1-BlackSmCp.ttf
Auto1-BoldLF.ttf
Auto1-BlackItalic.ttf
Auto1-BoldItalicLF.ttf
Auto1-Light.ttf
Auto1-BlackLF.ttf
Auto1-RegularLF.ttf
Auto1-Black.ttf
Auto1-ItalicSmCp.ttf
Auto1-LightItalicLF.ttf
Auto1-RegularSmCp.ttf
Auto1-Italic.ttf
Auto1-BlackItalicSmCp.ttf

Now the LaTeX part: enter the doc/ directory in the zip file and execute pdflatex Auto1.ins. This will generate an STY file and some FD files. Copy both the STY and all of the FD files to root/tex/latex/auto1.

Now register the new map file by executing the following command (as administrator):initexmf --edit-config-file updmap. Then add the line Map Auto1.map to the bottom of that file and execute initexmf --mkmaps. Open the MikTex Maintenance Settings (as Administrator) thingie and refresh FNDB and Update Formats.

I think that it might work now...

Aren't fonts in LaTeX fun?
