I've collected 'kibo's TeX postings from CI$, and have played around with
them a bit -- I found that there are not enough of the font image files
for the DVI filters to give good results.  The TeXST.tex file uses a size
of a font that is not available in the supplied 'pk' fonts.  DVIEPS uses
a (much) smaller size and produces unreadable mathmatical formulae, DVIST
just quits since it cannot find a close enough match on the size.

Is there any source (BBS or UUCP) for more of these font files?  Even better,
is there any PD port of Metafont to the ST so I can create whatever fonts in
whatever sizes I need?  Some of this may have passed by in
comp.binaries.atari.st or comp.sources.atari.st, but unfortunately, my system
only gets comp.sys.* and news.*, no sources, alt, or binaries groups.
