Does anyone know where I can find the METAFONT source for Computer Modern
Bold Extended (or just C.M. Bold) at 24 point ? Or, can anyone suggest
a set of rules for ``magnifying'' a smaller C.M.B. font -- to change the
source for CMBX12, say, to produce CMBX24. I know very little (next to
nothing !) about METAFONT, but I do know that to change from 12pt to
24pt, you *don't* just multiply everything in the METAFONT source files
by 2 :-)


Please email any suggestions to me directly -- I'll summarise any replies
that I receive and post the summary to the net.

Many thanks in advance
