I just installed emtex and am still unable to gett dviscr to work.
The problem seems to be that I have not been able to figure out
how to create a working library of font files with fontlib.
I plan to print my files on a laserprinter, rather than my own
buble jet printer.  But my most important need is to view my .dvi
files at the default resolution.  I would appreciate it if someone
could suggest a simple way of getting started with the creation
of font libraries using the fontlib command or whatever other
programs are necessary.

Thanks for the help.

Subject: BibTeX: how to suppress page ranges ?
Organization: Institut fuer Physikalische Chemie / Uni Wuerzburg
Date: Sat, 12 Dec 1992 12:56:25 GMT

Here is a difficult question for bibstyle hackers:

I want to suppress formating of page entries with ranges, even if
they are given in the database. That means, an entry of the form

page = {2345-2349},

should be processed to 2345 in the .bbl-file.

I looked around for bibstyles with an alternate "n.dashify"-function,
but found none.

Before I'm going to hack on this, I'd like to ask the net (you), if
somebody has done it before.

Thanks,
        Thomas.

   I use $\Box$ to close proofs.

Slightly slicker version (latex)

\newcommand{\fin}{{\hspace*{\fill}$\Box$\par}}

with the obvious TeX version (untested, so watch it)

\def\fin{\hfil$\Box$\par}


Both of which put the halmos at the right end of the line if there is

How does one rotate a table in LaTeX?  That is have the table printed

Yes, use EdMetrics to make up metrics for the text fonts (if they 
are for fonts that TeXtures does not already have metrics for).
Note that EdMetrics (like AFM2TFM) is not able to produce metrics for 
math fonts, however.
In fact, a TeX `math font' is much more than a mere collection of glyphs.
Presently the only `math fonts' that work with ATM and TeX are the CM fonts,
the AMS fonts, LaTeX + SLiTeX symbol fonts and LucidaBright + LucidaNewMath.

   Finally, will the Adobe version of Lucida Bright provide a complete
   text/math replacement for the CM fonts?

Sorry, Lucida Bright + Lucida New Math font set is NOT from Adobe, 
but from Y&Y.
The Mac version comes complete with TeXtures metrics files.
You can switch from CM to LB + LNM just by \input lcdplain.tex
or \input lcdlatex.tex.  The font set includes math fonts that cover
all of CM math, as well as AMS math fonts, plus more.

There is also NFSS support, thanks to Sebastian Rahtz.

My copy of the TeXBook (18th printing May 1990) has only the first defect
mentioned above.  The index in this version is not only excellent but
also has an entry for ``margins'' which says to see \hsize and \narrower.

Wellll, I'm sure someone is going to point out the limitations of this, but
unless I have totally missed the point of this thread, I have used the
following style for a few years now without much problem for doing what I
think it is you are wanting to do.  It was designed prior to the NFSS (or
at least my knowledge of it), it worked then and continues to work now. 
It's relatively short (STY.MATHTEXT on FILESERV/Niord) and I would like to
offer it as a solution (yes, my title and phone are now different; school

1. DirectTeX supports virtual fonts; OzTeX does not.

2. I have the impression (not measured) that DirectTeX runs faster than 
OzTeX; however, DirectTeX runs as an MPW shell, so it must launch the TeX 
compiler, previewer, and printer every time you use one; this launching 
adds a small overhead to each function.

3. DirectTeX includes the complete suite of TeX programs, including 
MetaFont, the font format converters, as well as WEB and CWEB.

4. The TeXShell that I picked up for running DirectTeX can be used for 
running other MPW utilities, such as MPW GAWK.

5. The TeXShell has its own editor; if you like it, then you don't need 
to run a separate one, as you must do with OzTeX.

6. DirectTeX has a facility for automatically building from MF files the 
missing fonts that a document requires.

7. DirectTeX has a nicer \special for working with PostScript.

Conclusion: If you only want to run TeX itself, and you don't need
virtual 
fonts, and you have all the PK fonts you need, don't bother to switch. If 
you have crashed up against some of the limitations of OzTeX, then 
consider DirectTeX.

Hi,
we are using a HPLJ 4 with the Postscript-Option, 
and we needed a MF mode for it. 
We are using dvips as the driver which will include TeX fonts as bitmaps in 
the Postscript files. We set up a mode for MF like this:

def common_mode_setup_ =
  proofing := 0;
  fontmaking := 1;
  tracingtitles := if pixels_per_inch > 700: 1 else: 0 fi;
enddef;
mode_def PS_Six =                       % 
  pixels_per_inch := 600;
  blacker := .05;
  fillin := 0;
  o_correction := .6;
  common_mode_setup_;
enddef;

which is mostly stolen from another 600dpi printer in modes.mf,
and created a new base by running inimf. The new MF works fine for us, 
any comments on how we could do better (improving the quality of output 
which is very good to me as a non expert)?

I don't think that {\rm-} will give a hyphen. It doesn't in my quick test.
\mathcode`\-="2200 is used in plain and latex, and sets the - char to come
out from family 2, the cmsy family (you can't get it from the rm font in math).
To get the - to scale you need some tricks. Here is some code defining a \text
macro for use with the OFSS. It allows you to use \it also. A short test follows
the macro:

\def\text#1{\relax
\mathchoice {\hbox{\everymath{\displaystyle}\rm #1}}%
            {\hbox{\everymath{\textstyle}\rm #1}}%
            {\hbox{\everymath{\scriptstyle}%

I have used bibcard--which seems to work well

How to obtain the new bibcard?

Anonymous ftp to iam.unibe.ch [130.92.64.10]
        /X11/Bibcard-1.0.tar.Z

I would like to have the label 'References' produced automatically
by the \bibliography command to be determined by me,
that is, I would like it to read : 'My list of references' or something like
this.
I looked in the original BibTex handout, but no luck.
If you know how this can be done, please reply.
Thank you,
Constantin

  Just a comment: Ghostscript shouldn't require PS fonts and therefore
NFSS. The ps file generated by dvips would include all your cmr fonts.
I use the emtex-dvips-ghostscript combination sometimes on a PC and it
is OK. The only problem is that the fonts in the ps file will be
300dpi and ghostscript will tweak them for your 24 pin printer
(360x360 or lower). This may result in less than perfect output. I
know that dvidot generates far better looking characters than
dvips-ghostscript combination.
