I am using the program :
DVIMSWIN - TeX .dvi previewer for Microsoft Windows
However I tried to get some of the fonts files as mentioned in
the document for this program, below:
This is release 2.40 of my TeX previewer for Microsoft
Windows, dvimswin. You need the file dvimswin.exe, the file texfonts.sub,
and fonts in the .pk format. The fonts must be stored in subdirectories of
one directory, all the fonts at 100 d.p.i. being in a directory
like c:\texfonts\100, the ones for 110 being in c:\texfonts\110, etc.
The program will ask for the name of this font directory. In this case
you would answer "c:\texfonts\". The program simply appends the d.p.i. value
to the string you gave it. The fonts are the same as those used
by my previewer dvivga, and are available from wsmr-simtel20.army.mil
by anonymous ftp. They are in the files "dvivga2.arc" through "dvivga8.arc".
You probably want to start with dvivga5.arc, which contains the 100 d.p.i.
fonts, and then get dvivga3.arc, which contains the 110 d.p.i. fonts
used a lot by Latex. Dvimswin.exe goes anywhere you wish, though most people
will put it in the Windows directory.
I found the dvivga files however I got errors in unarcing them,
(besides the dvivga5.arc).
Does anyone had success in using this program and unarcing all the
fonts files ?
