However: he does not "support" NFSS in the sense that it does not come with NT3.0. His reason for this is that since NFSS is still changing all the time he did not feel it made sense to ship with a version that might soon be out of date (and given what I've seen about the changes in NFSS on comp.text.tex I think this is a very reasonable approach). If you want to add NFSS to your NEXT-TeX see the TeX FAQ for information. If you run into trouble then post here and somebody should be able to help (Erik Sowa comes to mind --- sorry Erik :-) Hope this is Helpful --- tom
