Alternative Runtime Setups

The runtime setup described above is the most simple principle of getting started. However, there might be applications that deal with only one font file. A good example is the type1afm-utility which is described in section [*]. In such situations it seems to be overkill to read a font database file and several load paths. For this reason there are alternative ways to specify what should be read from where. Their description is deferred to section [*].
