I just got OzTex and I am very pleased with it!  One problem though, with
TeX.  I have access to a PostScript printer, so it seems ridiculous to
have to store megabytes of Computer Modern bitmaps.  Is there a way to
set things up so that I use only PostScript fonts?  The two alternatives
seem to be:

     1. Somehow map CM to PS equivalents.  For instance, using Times Roman
	whenever CMR is requested.  The problem I see with this is that
	CMMI has no Times equivalent--math italics italicizes letters
	but not numbers or parens, etc.
     2. Find an inexpensive or public domain set of CM Postscript fonts.

Does anyone out there have any suggestions.  My over-full hard disk would
thank you very much.
