TeX font metric

TeX font metric (TFM) is a font file format used by the TeX typesetting system. It is a font metric format, not an outline font format like TrueType, because it provides only the information necessary to typeset the font such as each character's width, height and depth. The actual glyphs are stored elsewhere. This is not unique to TeX; Adobe's AFM files and Windows' PFM files use the same technique.

TFM files contain all of the information TeX needs to produce its device-independent (DVI) output. The actual glyphs are then inserted by the eventual DVI output driver or previewer, using, for instance, TrueType fonts, or fonts in METAFONT's PK format. The format is designed to be extremely compact: in the original Computer Modern distribution, every font's TFM file is smaller than 2kb.

Specification

The canonical specification of the TFM format is embedded in the source code of the program TFtoPL.

A TFM file is broken down into a series of four-byte words, which can contain data fields of various lengths. Any data fields that are more than one byte long are held in big endian order. (The exact same file will be generated, regardless of architecture of the computer generating it.)

TFM (radio)

TFM is a local radio station owned and operated by Bauer Radio as part of the City 1 network. It broadcasts to County Durham, Tees Valley and North Yorkshire from studios in Newcastle.

The station currently broadcasts on 96.6 FM, DAB and online with DAB services provided by Bauer Digital. In April 2013, the station was merged with Metro Radio in Newcastle.

History

From the start of broadcasting in 1975, TFM (then known as Radio Tees) was owned by Sound Broadcasting (Teesside) Ltd and originally broadcast on 257 Medium Wave only, with a later launch on 95 VHF. After a government radio frequency re shuffle in the mid-1980s, the FM frequency was swapped with BBC Radio Cleveland and Radio Tees shifted to 96.6 FM in 1986. In 1988 Radio Tees was relaunched as TFM 96.6 after being taken over by Newcastle upon Tyne based Metro Radio Group. Shortly after this, a new Medium Wave station called Great North Radio (GNR) was launched after broadcasting rules meant TFM could not broadcast on both FM and Medium Wave.

TRFM

TRFM (formerly 3TRFM) is an Australian radio station operating west of Traralgon, Victoria. It is owned by Ace Radio and shares studios with sister station GOLD 1242, formerly 1242 3GV. The station broadcasts on FM 99.5 MHz from Mount Tassie near Traralgon into Sale and the Latrobe Valley and on FM 99.9 MHz from Mount Taylor into Bairnsdale and East Gippsland.

History

The station began life in Trafalgar as 3TR, being an abbreviation for 3 Trafalgar Radio. It was founded by Frank Berkery. It has since moved studio locations several times and has been based in Trafalgar, Sale and now presently Traralgon.

The original 3TR studios in Sale are now used by ABC Gippsland. These studios were officially opened by then Prime Minister Robert Menzies on Saturday 29 April 1939 and the program was then relayed across the Victorian Broadcast Network (made up of 3SH and 3HA at the time) to which it then belonged.

For the majority of the station's life it operated on the AM band at 1242 kHz. On Friday 26 April 2002 at Midday the station officially became 3TR FM. For the previous week it was simulcasting on both AM and FM after test transmissions. Also at Midday, sister station 3GV (now known as Gold 1242) commenced on 1242 kHz.

Finestre aperte per il caldo che non fa dormire
Umore in scatola e miele, faccio colazione
Mi perdo tra le note di una melodia d'amore
E il tuo sapore
Lo sguardo pronto, il cuore mobile
L'orgoglio poco disponibile
A darla vinta a te
Renderti facile
Rivendicarti ancora in un'ora
Mare, mare, mare
Qualcuno da lassù saprà ascoltare
Mare, mare, mare
Ti spiego una parola, due non lo so fare
La nostra fine non fu niente di speciale
Rispetto al fatto che poi tutto sa passare
Ma mi perseguitano queste tre parole:
Ti Voglio Male
Guardare la Sicilia al riverbero del sole
L'estate amplifica l'effetto forte di un dolore
L'odore misto di salsedine e il tuo colore
Parlan per ore
La rabbia attenta il passo debole
La mia allegria non può convincere
Il viso bianco e
L'umore fragile
Mentre impetuoso lasciami star male
Mare, mare, mare
Qualcuno da lassù saprà ascoltare
Mare, mare, mare
Ti spiego una parola, due non lo so fare
La nostra fine non fu niente di speciale
Rispetto al fatto che poi tutto sa passare
Ma mi perseguitano queste tre parole:
Ti Voglio Male
Finestre aperte non è il caldo che non fa dormire
L'umore è quello, sempre quello, ora non può cambiare
Ora mi perdo però poi se mi vorrai trovare
Sai dove andare
La nostra fine non fu niente di speciale
Rispetto al fatto che poi tutto sa passare
Ma mi perseguitano queste tre parole:
Ti Voglio Male
Mare, mare, mare
