I've updated the Lucida font distribution to version 1.2.

	ftp.cs.umb.edu [192.12.26.23]:pub/tex/lucida/lucida.tar.Z

These files will be of no use to you unless you also have the Type 1
PFA/PFB/etc. files with the outlines.

Changes in this release:

* \cdot (and hence \cdots) spacing corrected (vastly decreased).

* Use dvips' new afm2tfm program.

* New version of psnfss.sup for using these fonts with NFSS.

The distribution includes the math fonts as a (more or less) drop-in
replacement for Computer Modern.  I've worked some on the magic math
font parameters, but no doubt improvements are possible.

I suggest using Tom Rokicki's dvips as your DVI-to-PostScript program.
dvips is on labrea.stanford.edu:pub/dvips*.tar.Z, and my hacked version
with the same path searching algorithm is on
ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/dvipsk.tar.Z.  The afm2tfm program in those
distributions is what I used to create the virtual fonts.

Thanks to Sebastian Rahtz, who did much of the initial work, and Chuck
Bigelow and Kris Holmes, who designed the typefaces.
