Having a slight problem with PSsetfont and I can't find the answer on my system,
can anyone help?

The raw PostScript required is

	/Times-Roman findfont 12 scalefont setfont

I can wrap this as

	defineps tm12()
		/Times-Roman findfont 12 scalefont setfont
	endps

but would like to code it inline as

	PSfindfont("Times-Roman");
	PSscalefont(12.0);
	PSsetfont(???);

The last line is the one that causes me grief. I'm supposed to send it a
reference, any clues?

Thanks

Andy Gray
