Thus, after editing the property list file, a TFM file can be generated\nfor use with, for example, tex(1).\n\nThe plfilename is extended with .pl if it lacks a suffix. No path searching is done.\n\nIf no tfmfilename is given, the basename of plfilename with suffix .tfm is  used;  other‐\nwise tfmfilename is extended with .tfm if it lacks a suffix.\n",
