I'm new to the world of TeX, and I was trying to use the \font control word in the following way: \font\mike1 = cmr10 and TeX returned the following error: ! Font \mike=1 not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found. HOWEVER, when I changed the line to: \font\mikea = cmr10 everything worked. Why is "mikea" valid and "mike1" not valid? Any ideas? Thanks in advance. ************************************************************************* MICHAEL FORTINSKY fortinsk@torolab5.vnet.ibm.com *************************************************************************
