Transformation of Fonts
Transformation of
Type 1 fonts is generally accomplished by means of concatenating
so-called transformation matrices. For example, rotation is
equivalent to concatenation of
the standard transformation matrix with a special matrix whose elements are
trigonometric functions evaluated at the rotation angle. In the sense of
t1lib, we distinguish between fontlevel transformations and characterlevel transformations.
