For instance, using emTeX on a PC, one can say

dvihplj test.dvi prn /m1200

to magnify by a factor of 1.2.  Thus, a 10pt original 5in wide will be 6in
wide and looking like 12pt when magnified. The hairlines in characters are
also magnified, so you can get the publisher to photo-reduce your camera
ready document, assuming the publisher cannot work directly from the .DVI
file. This gives a better result than reducing a true 12pt document to 10pt,
since 10pt--> magnified 10pt--> 10pt is not the same as reduced 12pt.

One problem you may find is that you may be missing some fonts at some
magnifications. Also, your 14pt xxx font may really be a 12pt magnified
font already, which gets a further dose of magnification on top.

Wei X. Zheng asks:
 ``The LaTeX Manual says, "The \magnification command in Plain TeX has no
   counterpart in LaTeX. Magnification of the output can often be done by 
   the program that prints the dvi file." If anyone knows what this means 
   and how to do magnification in LaTeX, please kindly let me know.''

This means that you cannot tell LaTeX to produce a `scaled' dvi file
(i.e. one that will produce output scaled by a certain factor when
processed by a driver program). So centimeters allways will be true
centimeters. 

You don't loose any functionality, as most dvi drivers allow you to
scale your output (if scaled fonts are available). So if you are using
dvips and you want to print an A5 page onto A4 for later reduction
(so you get better resolution) you would use
        dvips -x 1400 <your file name>
              ^^^^^^^
This means: magnify output by 1400/1000.

Of course the exact procedure is dependent on the driver you use.

Does anyone know of a free-ware program for printing dvi files

1. a Sparcstation I (or II)

2. a SGI Indigo?

Subject: Spell Checkers and pk file conversion

I'd like to thank everybody who helped me with my spelling and pk problems.

Several spell checkers were recommended:
        --------------

MICROSPELL:
Trigram Systems of 5840 Northumberland St. Pittsburgh, PA 15217 (FAX
412-422-3793) sells a system called MicroSpell (version 8 for MSDOS) for
$79.oo (US).

LSPELL20:
Try looking out a copy of lspell20.zip, its a TeX/LaTeX aware spell checker
which runs under DOS, written in Turbo Pascal I think.If memory serves correctl
y it was in /mirrors/txtutl on wuarchive.wustl.edu,
but archie should be able to direct you anyway ......

AMSPELL:
The third (you can ftp it on 141.210.10.117, file
pub/msdos/txtutl/amspel20.zip) is a work of some people in
netherlands.

EPELLE/DOS & SSPELL:
EPELLE est un ensemble de programmes visant \`a d\'etecter des mots
mal orthographi\'es dans des textes fran\c cais saisis afin
d'\^etre compos\'es en TeX.

SSPELL est un programme visant \`a d\'etecter des mots mal
orthographi\'es dans des textes anglais et d\'evelopp\'e par
Maurice Castro (maurice@bruce.cs.monash.edu.au).

L'ensemble est disponible sur le Sun de l'Institut Fourier
(mozart [130.190.12.100]) par ftp : le fichier epespe.tar.Z dans
le r\'epertoire ~/fourier.

I've installed amspell and epell/dos, both of which are working fine.

PK file conversion
- ------------------

I was recommended to run metafont or use a different previewer, I chose the
latter.

DVISCR:
emTeX is available in all
the standard archives, but the canonical source is
  rusinfo.rus.uni-stuttgart.de
in the directory
  /soft/tex/machines/pc/emtex
Get the file README.ENG for an explanation of what the various parts are
and which of them you need.  (The german version is readme.ger).

TeXhax frequency is based on volume of received mail: there aren't
many contributions at the moment.  Would a regular (say, two-weekly,
if possible) posting be a better arrangement?
Better still, SEND IN MORE CONTRIBUTIONS!

UKTeX receives a regular amount of traffic, so continues as a weekly digest.

I welcome contributions to both TeXhax and UKTeX, to addresses
TeXhax@tex.ac.uk and UKTeX@tex.ac.uk, respectively.

Latest issues in V92 of each digest are: TeXhax #19 and UKTeX #40.

Back issues are available for anonymous ftp from tex.ac.uk in
directory [tex-archive.digests.NAME.YEAR]NAME.NN
where NAME = {texhax|uktex}; YEAR=92, for example; NN=issue.

Subject: other spell checkers

Someone just recently asked about PC spell checkers.  I don't have any
suggestions.  Actually I was hoping someone would have suggestions as
to where I could find a decent Public Domain spell checker that will
run in Unix/Risk/BSD environments.  I have been given permission to 
put software on a small DECstation network in order to make it usefull.
Essentially, I'm putting on stuff that I will use since no one else uses
the system except to logon to other mainframes. So, I've put TeX, TeXis, 
etc on it but have been unable to find a decent PD spell checker.

Any ideas would be helpful.

Subject: LaTeX: \thispagestyle for "page of floats"?

Can anyone suggest an easy way of specifying, in a LaTeX 2.09 style file,
that, if a page contains only floats (i.e., [p] has happened), a particular
\thispagestyle is to be used?
 
I ask because I'm doing a .sty file which has page headers that include the
current section title.  If there's a mixture of floats and text on the
page, then the "current section" title is still appropriate (since it can
be taken as a header for the text).  But if a page consists only of floats
(which may have floated some way from the section where they appear in the
.tex file), the "current section" header may be inappropriate or misleading
and may be best suppressed.  So I'd like to have \pagestyle{headings} most
of the time, but to say something like "if we're on a page consisting only
of floats (i.e., with no text at all), then \thispagestyle{plain}".
 
I've browsed through latex.tex hoping to find a chunk of code that I can
copy to my .sty file, with the addition of a \thispagestyle at a crucial
point, but have failed to find a suitable chunk.

Subject: TeX/LaTeX Spell Checkers

TO MODERATORS: I've no idea how many details of commercial programs you
like to give on the list - suffice it to say that I have no connection
with Trigram other than being a past customer.
 
Jim Walker asked about Spell Checkers for DOS which understand TeX/LaTeX:
 
I know of two: there is DVISPELL,  which is part of emTeX, and hence
available from Aston, it works on .dvi files, which probably has advantages
where accents are concerned, however, I've never used it...
 
If you were prepared to part with hard cash then I would recommend
Microspell from Trigram Systems, 5840 Northumberland St.  Pittsburgh
PA 15217. This is a commercial(!) system which "knows" about TeX, so
it operates directly on the .tex file, with a built-in editor for
_serious_ problems. I think it would probably cost ca 50 quid after
currency conversions.
 
Beware! MicroSpell has an american dictionary (but the american words
are easily removed and U.K. English versions substituted).

Subject: New macro package: Lollipop TeX

The Lollipop Format, first public release, October 1992

Victor Eijkhout

What is Lollipop?

The Lollipop format tries to bridge the gap between the fact
that in TeX anything is programmable, and the fact that doing so is
too hard for the people such as typographers,
who know actually what to program. Or even for seasoned programmers.

Lollipop is a macro package that gives the user powerful
tools for programming macros for lists, headings, output routines
and a number of other things. The Lollipop macros take the specifications
for a macro, and then construct that macro.

About this release

Lollipop is not finished, but it is already quite powerful.
(It has been used to typeset my book 'TeX by Topic', for instance.)
I suggest that anyone who is interested format the manual
and have a look at the examples in it. They document
the current power of Lollipop (really: all examples,
including of output routines, are formatted on the fly).

Since Lollipop is still under development I will be very
accessible for questions, bug reports and suggestions.
Email preferred: eijkhout@cs.utk.edu.
(And I will be flattered if you actually use Lollipop,
but beware that changes may occur in future versions.)

Lollipop can be ftp'ed from the directory /pub/eijkhout/tex
on cs.utk.edu (log in as 'anonymous') where it is stored
as 'lollipop.tar.Z'. Uncompress and 'tar -fx' it.

Like a lot of TeXware, Lollipop is free. Make and give away
all the copies that you want. Just don't ask money for it.

Share and enjoy!

Subject: lucida (math) version 1.2 available

I've updated the Lucida font distribution to version 1.2.

        ftp.cs.umb.edu [192.12.26.23]:pub/tex/lucida/lucida.tar.Z

These files will be of no use to you unless you also have the Type 1
PFA/PFB/etc. files with the outlines.

Changes in this release:

* \cdot (and hence \cdots) spacing corrected (vastly decreased).

* Use dvips' new afm2tfm program.

* New version of psnfss.sup for using these fonts with NFSS.

The distribution includes the math fonts as a (more or less) drop-in
replacement for Computer Modern.  I've worked some on the magic math
font parameters, but no doubt improvements are possible.

I suggest using Tom Rokicki's dvips as your DVI-to-PostScript program.
dvips is on labrea.stanford.edu:pub/dvips*.tar.Z, and my hacked version
with the same path searching algorithm is on
ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/dvipsk.tar.Z.  The afm2tfm program in those
distributions is what I used to create the virtual fonts.

Thanks to Sebastian Rahtz, who did much of the initial work, and Chuck
Bigelow and Kris Holmes, who designed the typefaces.

Subject: eplain 2.2 available

I have released Eplain version 2.2.  It is available by ftp from

  ftp.cs.umb.edu [192.12.26.23]:pub/tex/{eplain/*,eplain.tar.Z}
   ics.uci.edu [128.195.1.1]:TeX/eplain/eplain-2.2.tar.Z

You might also be able to get it by email from George Greenwade's file
server if you cannot ftp: mail fileserv@shsu.edu with a body of
something like `SENDME EPLAIN.EPLAIN_TEX'.

I'm making this release only because it's been over seven months since
the last release, and a number of bug fixes have accumulated.  I haven't
yet incorporated any of the good suggestions people have sent me
(cross-referencing to figures and the like as well as pages and
equations, figuring out the multi-column situation, generalizing toc
files to other kinds of auxiliary files, indexing commands, etc., etc.).
I hope to be able to do that soon.  (I hope to be able to release a lot
of things soon, as always...funny how that never happens.)

Please send bug reports directly to me.

Here is a summary of the most significant changes (from the file NEWS in
the distribution):

* New \toks register \everylist, expanded at the start of every list.

* \footnoterulewidth defined as 2in, not 2true in, thus allowing the use
  of \mag after reading eplain.tex.  The `2true in' was Knuth's, but I
  don't know why he did it.

* \obeywhitespace works inside a \vbox.

* \boxit is \long, and uses \ehrule and \evrule.

* \writenumberedtocentry expands the chapter number, so `\the
  <register>' can be used.

* \verbatim doesn't begin and end with \par, so it can be used in the
  middle of a paragraph.

* \pathafterhook added to \path in path.sty, so macros can execute
  cleanup actions.

* The \path command and its friends are documented in the manual.


For those of you who haven't heard of Eplain: it is a collection of
macros intended to provide relatively low-level capabilities, regardless
of how your document appears.  For example, it has macros to do symbolic
cross-referencing, but not macros to produce a section heading.  It also
has some definitions that make it easier to change the conventions of
plain TeX's output.  For example, it lets you produce left-justified
math displays by simply saying `\leftdisplays'.

Subject: New version of SFPtoPK on FILESERV/Niord

Norm Walsh <walsh@cs.umass.edu> (who has my best wishes in his
"study-for-comps" semester) forwarded me a new version of his popular
SFPtoPK.  From Norm:

    SFPtoPK version 2.1(beta) fixes a small bug in SFPtoPK v2.00.
    If you tried to convert a font that was _both_ small enough
    to fit entirely in memory _and_ had a header shorter than 64
    bytes, SFPtoPK v2.00 would miss the first character in the
    font.  The only fonts that I have seen that have a header
    smaller than 64 bytes are old LJ+ softfonts.  Unfortunately,
    the PCX2FONT program creates this style of header.  My
    apologies for the inconvienience.  If you have any trouble,
    please let me know...

The files are available via e-mail as a 6 part UUENCODEd ZIP archive by
including:
 SENDME SPFONTWARE.SF2PK21B*
in the body of a mail message to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET (FILESERV@SHSU.edu).
The file SF2PK21B.ZIP is available for anonymous ftp retrieval from
Niord.SHSU.edu (192.92.115.8) in the directory [FILESERV.SPFONTWARE].  

The SPFONTWARE package and directory also includes the rest of Norm's
convenient  utilities to convert Hewlett-Packard softfonts to *and* from
TeX PK/TFM format.  For more information on the files via e-mail, include:
 DIRECTORY SPFONTWARE
in a mail message to FILESERV.  Users of anonymous ftp may retrieve the
description file (SPFONTWARE.DESCRIPTION) from Niord in the directory
[FILESERV].

Regards and best wishes to Norm,   George
