Hi all! I've got a couple questions regarding the DVI drivers supplied with
emTeX. First, has anyone else noticed that the drivers conduct a case sensitive
search for fonts? (ie, \font\thefont\CMBX10 is reported to be not found)
Should this be considered a bug given that MS-DOS does not have a case
sensitive file system? I have not yet experimented with font names greater
than 8 characters, but it might be interesting.

Lastly, has anyone played around with dvihplj version 1.4b or later? With
prior versions I was able to print envelopes using a modified version of
Knuth's letter macro and the following command line switches: /b0 /e0 /l=1.5in
/t=0cm. For this the printer was in landscape mode. With version 1.4b, however,
I am receiving a lot of "overstriking" and utter garbage. Any suggestions?
Someone in the os2.binaries is having a similar problem, I believe.

Thanks,
Dwaine
