Well DVI is DVI, more or less. On VAX/VMS, for instance, DVI files
are organised in fixed-size records (512 bytes, I think) for
the sake of efficiency. So transferring DVI files from a PC to a
VMS system may be non-trivial.

I would appreciate input from people who are doing this. The
same goes for font files.
