Latex: smooth rendering of bitmap fonts
I would like to use the Concrete Math font in latex, which is a bitmap
font. The rendering with pdflatex is naturally poor-quality with jagged
edges.
My solution so far has been to generate a DVI file and then convert to pdf
using Linux's dvipdf. This tool effectively traces and smooths the edges
of the glyphs and the end result is beautiful. However, using the DVI
output format (with latex) causes a host of other problems with including
figures, etc. For instance, you can't include .png or .pdf figures when
using plain latex.
Is there a way to somehow get the same bitmap font-smoothing effect in
pdflatex? or via an intermediate format that still allows you to include
at least .png figures?
