Has anyone altered dvipage, TeXtool, etc so that they can read the PK format fonts for TeX. I know VorTeX has a previewer that reads these fonts but they want $500 for a license. The PK fonts take up MUCH less disk space than the old PXL fonts. Any help appreciated. Nessan Mhuiris nessan@amelia.nas.nasa.gov [[ The GF fonts, however, are a good compromise. They take up just a little more room than PK, but are produced directly by Metafont and have a much wider acceptance. PXL is dead. No one should be using PXL at all anymore for anything. --wnl ]]
