	I need a simple solution to view DVI and TEX files. I've already 
downloaded DVI driver version 2.6 ,but I can't get it working. Everytime I 
open a TEX file it say "INVALID DVI FILES". For DVI files, it can not generate 
the missing fonts, I receive an error message "Bad command or file name" when 
the genpk.bat is executed. Worst, it cannot display anything even when I've 
already specified correct fonts directory.

	_How can I configure DVI viewer ?
	_What font files do I need to download and where to find it ?
	_Is there any other TEX/DVI viewer for DOS/Win16/Win32 that easy to 
install and configure ?

I`ve read several FAQ files but didn`t find anything useful.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Please e-mail to vphg@stsim.com (I don't read USENET news very often)
