Message-ID: Date: 29 Oct 90 20:10:24 GMT Sender: news@inews.intel.com Distribution: comp Organization: OME, INTeL Corp., Hillsboro, Oregon Lines: 28 I am trying to absorb all this information on TeX, fonts and previewers and I am begin to drowned in all this knowledge. Ideally I want one dvi to ps converter that will support 300dpi and 400dpi laser printers. I would like the ability to use the builtin fonts. Secondly I need a TeX previewer running under X11. I would like to use the same fonts as the dvi to ps converter program uses (gf ? pk ?) Also for draft previewing I would like to use X11 fonts instead of TeX fonts. I am running in a Sun Unix environment under X11R4. At present I am using dvips and xdvi. These packages don`t provide the features I would like. Please send email w/ what your instillation uses for a previewer and converter combination. I'd like to hear if you have meet the goals I outlined or if you have an idea how I could reach mine. I`ll post a summary of replys received. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom Shott INTeL, 5200 Elam Young Pkwy, Hillsboro, OR 97124, (503) 696-4520 toms@mipon2.intel.com OR toms%mipon2.intel.com@csnet.relay.com INTeL..
