  Hi,


  This seems like an easy question, but . . . where do I get manfnt from?
I can't find the mf source in either my TURBOmetafont or the UofW Unix-TeX
distribution. How can I print trapman without manfnt? I tried the manfnt
that comes with dvipsone (looks like type-3 bitmap): I downloaded it to
the PS printer, then started printing trapman. I get a title of

                       A Torture Test for ()*+,-.*

After looking at trapman.ps, it looks like this font will work OK for
all but the first page (where it also reads "opqrstuq is a trademark of
Addison-Wesley . . ."), but it would be nice to have the correct font.

  Thanks,
  Chris Hamlin, mis@aps.org

Subject: LaTeX to Postscript..

Hello...
I am unfortunately not a big user of laTeX and we have recently had a
person come in for consulting who needs some help with a conversion.
This person has a bunch of large files done with LaTeX and some
Postscript figures done on a Macintosh.  Is there a way to convert his
LaTeX files to Postscript, or say into some word processor like Word for
the Macintosh?  Thanks for any help...

Hi.  I have been using the letter.sty template in LaTeX for quite a
while now.  I include a postscript header of my university seal, etc.
on the top of the manuscript.  And everything works fine EXCEPT. . . .

For some reason, the body of the letter, including the date appears
a little too "down", i.e., it begins further down the page than I
think it should, with the result that letters that should be one long
page are now two pages.

I tried changing \topmargin, and other things, but nothing seems
to work?  Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

Dear BibTeX community,

does there exists a BibTeX-style which adds to each entry in the reference

If I get replies, I will post a summary to the group.

amspell does most of that, too.  I don't think it is as TeX-aware as

   Is there a FAQ concerning how Postscript fonts can be used in TeX?
The location where the TeX fonts is stored on my system just uses
the standard TeX fonts, and the Postscript fonts seemed to be located
elsewhere, so I can't use a command like

\font\hi=HelveticaBold at 12pt

since HelveticaBold isn't one of the standard TeX fonts.

   How can this be done?  What about math fonts?

As detex is mentioned, I'd like to add a hint to untex.
I wrote it as a replacement for detex. It doesn't check \input or
\includ'ed files, but does IMHO a better job stripping TeX commands.

It is available via anon ftp at
hal6000.Uni-Duisburg.DE:pub/source/untex.c
and compiles under many C compilers as gcc, cc (AIX and hpux tested),
MS cl, Turbo C.... 
(Please note that hal6000 is no a well maintained ftp server,
 we're having the ftp account just for some special purposes.)

From: gt@ee.latrobe.edu.au (Geoff Tobin)
Date: Sat, 9 Jan 1993 09:45:23 GMT
Organization: Department of Electronic Engineering, La Trobe University

From a programmer's point of view, I've been dissatisfied with
"dvitype".  So I read TUG's "The DVI Driver Standard, Level 0"
document, available from ftp.uni-stuttgart.de, to quickly learn how
a binary DVI file is structured.

I decided to use the notation used in the Driver Standard as 99.7% of
a humanly readable DVI-equivalent language, which I call "DPL" (for
"DVI Property List", or "DVI Page Language", if you like).

Then I wrote two C programs, "dv2dp" and "dp2dv", to convert DVI files
to and from DPL format.  To my relief, "the loop has closed" on DVI
files so far.

dv2dp is quite fast, but dp2dv runs much slower, presumably due to
such things as a slow, naive, pattern matching algorithm.

DPL files are much larger than DVI files, but I think of them as a
learning tool.  It's interesting to see what TeX produces.  Maybe DPL
can help with debugging in a less verbose way than dvitype's output?

Is anyone interested in dv2dp.c and dp2dv.c ?

PS:  Perhaps a slightly higher level representation than DPL would be
feasible.  If the pointers were replaced by a more robust construct -
using labels, for example - then it might be feasible to sensibly edit
a DVI file.  I'm not asserting that that would be useful.
