HELP!!!!

  Well, it's not that desperate, actually...  I just ftp'd OzTeX from the site
mentioned in an earlier posting, and after about 2 hours of download time by
modem, it's now taking up huge quantities of room on my HD.

  PROBLEM:  I try to look at various DVI files, and I keep getting this error
message "font:PK-files:<insert font name here>" not found.  I get stacks of
these messages.  The stuffit archive that I got (OzTeX.sit) contained a folder
called PK-files, but it was empty (0K).  Is there someplace to find these
files, or whatever it needs?

  I'm not a TeX person.  I downloaded it in the hopes of being able to look at
files done on UNIX systems (I mean, really, all these slashes and
parentheses... ugh!), but I don't really feel like clicking "Continue" 10
times whenever I read through a document.

  Also, is there no PD TeX program that will print to a non-Postscript device?
I'd really like to be able to print this stuff to my DeskWriter, but it's no
go with OzTeX.  I want a PostScript interpreter!!

Thanks for any help you can provide!
