[texhax] FAQ: Copy-paste-able/searchable PDF files - for plainTeX and pdftex

[Dan Luecking]

I don't know if this will work. But it atleast compiles for me.

% load the plain version of the NFSS:
\input plnfss

% \input ot1cm.pfd % if using cm fonts

% Now select a font
\setfontsize{12pt}
\selectfont
\usefont{OT1}{ptm}{m}{n}

% load latex emulation
\input miniltx

% define some code not defined by miniltx
\newif\ifin@
\def\in@#1{\in at false}
\let\@filelist\@empty

% input cmap
\input cmap.sty

\resetatcatcode

...
\bye

Since I am not sure what constitutes a test of cmap, I'll let
someone else test this.

Dan
