I have been trying to use texx to preview TeX output (dvi files) under
X11R1 on a Sun 3/50. Texx fails to find fonts at the correct sizes (we
have other magnifications but not the ones it computes are necessary);
then when it tries to create the page format, it dies while in the
rasterizing process. I presume this has something to do with the fact
that it has been unable to find any font rasters to use.

If anyone has successfully used texx, I'd appreciate knowing how,
especially if you also don't have the exact collection of pixel files
it thinks it needs. I'm a complete neophyte where the internals of dvi
files and fonts are concerned, so please make no assumptions when
giving instructions.
